The primary goal of this book is to train the ability to read music and free the musician from being dependent on tablatures or other communication systems that are not used in the academic or professional worlds. This book has been designed to train aural skills concurrently with reading skills.

Instructions and preview are available at the Robert Anthony Publishing website.

Volume 1 is comprised of 300 progressive exercises that cover the keys of C Major, F Major, G Major, A Minor, D Minor and E Minor. Time signatures include 4/4 (Common Time), 3/4, 2/4, 6/8, and 2/2 (Cut Time). Volume 2 expands into all keys of up to four sharps (#) and four flats (b).

The exercises are all eight measures (two phrases, or one period) in length. While they are composed to be melodic and pleasant to the ear, they are also composed to be difficult to memorize, and utilize many rhythms that seem to be absent from other sight reading books. Inconvenient interval skips, modal music, set theory, and some atonal passages are used throughout the book. These might be uncomfortable for a beginning musician's ears, but surely any 'professional' music teacher will be able to recognize what they are hearing.

The 'Large Print' editions contain the same music as the 'Standard Print' versions: 300 Progressive Sight Reading Exercises. For printing and electronic delivery purposes, the large print editions needed to be released in two parts - each containing 150 of the exercises. Part 1 is comprised of exercises 1-150, and Part 2 is comprised of exercises 151-300. This most recent update includes a new cover design so that the 'Large Print' and 'Standard Print' versions are no longer confused for one another.

While this book is intended to train sight-reading and aural skills, it may be used by beginners or those new to reading music to acquire basic reading skills. It starts at a very easy level and gradually introduces a new note, rhythm, or concept, and thoroughly reinforces them throughout the rest of the book. Instructional Videos will be posted below the standard-print versions of these books on the Robert Anthony Publishing website.
