As a cellist of nearly 9 years, who has deliberately practiced reading in advance whilst playing,
I can confidently say that it works wonders. Not just for being comfortably ready for upcoming music, but also for placing unused fingers on upcoming notes in advance, allowing for smoother transitions

6:12 laughing at "fingering" being a weakness is so real lmfao

this video was helpful, even though i play arguably the hardest instrument to sight read (classical guitar)
just imagine consistently reading 5 and 6 note chords that, unlike piano, any given note can be played in several different positions, and you only have four fingers to finger with🙃

Speaking as someone who grew up using standard western notation and is now learning an alternate form (减字谱,for the 古琴) , it's really interesting to see how some of this advice (from the whole series) can apply to 减字谱,and how some or it can't. But it's a great reminder to always challenge yourself and both go back to basics and challenge yourself with new things! Thank you for this wonderful concise but thoughtful primer on sight reading!
ps: if anyone reading this is curious about 减字谱 (jianzipu) or the 古琴 (guqin), I highly recommend checking it out. it's a beautiful instrument, and the writing system is fascinating. It gives you a lot of information standard notation doesn't (such as what finger to press down on what string at what place, and what finger to pluck with going what direction), but also skips some of the information standard notation considers vital (such as how long to hold each note, or even displaying them visually relative to each other), because of the way the instrument was historically taught, using a mixture of sight reading and playing by ear.
pps: I'd love to see you do a series on alternate/historical musical notation! I feel like there's so much you can learn and take away from it even if at the end of the day you go back to standard, and it tells you so much about what was prioritized at the time and for that specific instrument!

You don’t know how much I love your videos and topics you choose, that’s why I’m leaving this comment here! Sight reading intrigues me as a skill because although in music schools we’re being taught almost the same thing but all students result in different levels of sight reading proficiency
Edit: 4:58 you cheeky bastard…

Having viewed all the videos posted are excellent in terms of visuals and analogies and your step-by-step approach are all packed into each video. A good range of mix (of videos) for the beginner to more advance musicians.
The challenge is how to make music theory and all its strands interesting to practice so perhaps for future videos this is a subject you might cover a practical song for reference.
A good example might be Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain” as it sounds good and you can use all your previous videos visuals intersected to break down (and explain) rhythms, counting (e.g., the bass line). Hopefully this will encourage beginners to practice and master a song at the same time.

Thank you very much. I subscribed to the srf thanks to you
Just one little correction
7:17 : It's not exact: In all the countries that use fixed do (i.e the countries that don't speak english nor a germanic language) B is not Ti at all but definitively Si.
Ti is a changement made in the 19th century by Sarah Glover, so it's common only in the english speaking countries which use movable do.

Solfege is one thing I don't know well! I only know the natural notes going up the scale! A friend and I were talking recently about not understanding solfege, because we've never had to use it! Both of us are planning on going into music related fields and she'll need to learn solfege at university. I'm not sure if the uni I'm applying to uses solfege or not! It's just so foreign to me!
