You're welcome!
Thank you Dave Pollack g😍🤩reat video. I'm going to give it a try too.
Glad you like it!
Great video. I'm going to give it a try
Awesome!
Thank you Dave Pollack
You’re welcome!
Fingering a new piece of music on the instrument is very effective approach; I am doing this for years.
Anyhow, I will add the clapping step; makes absolute sense.
Thank you Dave
There are many great approaches! I’ve just used this with hundreds and hu dreds of students with great success, so it’s the method I like best.
I loved this video!! I just found out I am not doing the triplets correctly. I am going to work on this. Dave Masterclass is excellent and I would highly recommend it for all saxophone players!!!!!!!

Sight reading was always my nemesis, and often in situations where I didn’t have time to look at the page and do all the steps you suggest… maybe 15-30 seconds and GO! What actually helped me most was reading books out loud to my young son where I trained my eyes to jump ahead a little and back again. Now I’m trying to learn bass and reading bass clef keeps throwing me off 😂
Yep, on-stage sight reading is a whole other thing!
Dave - not a sax player, but still thought this lesson was great!
Thanks! This is definitely for any instrument
Thank you❤
You’re welcome!
Very very good advice there, thank you very much
You’re welcome 🙏
Thanks Dave

Gotta add an additional step, if I may:
Listen to a lot of music to begin with + try to hear a snippet before you start reading the chart. What gets me through most sight reading run throughs is already being familiar with what a lot of tunes are already supposed to sound like beforehand. I have I heard this song before? Usually if I have, sight reading becomes way easier. But I’ve also dozens of times asked an older player what a chart is generally supposed to sound like and they’ve always been more than happy to hum it to me. Not the whole thing, but just enough to know what the melody is.
To me, if you hear it first, that’s NOT sight-reading. You will refer back to your reference recording and use some wrote elements, which again, is NOT sight-reading. I have a while brand new course coming out soon about song learning and listening is a HUGE part! But that’s different than true sight-reading.
Hi Dave, this is all great stuff. Becoming a better reader is something I am working on this summer, I was wondering if you had advice finding more material to read, I consider myself a solid sight reader but want to find some more advanced lines and rhythms to challenge myself.
Thanks!
I would look for big band charts online! Read all different parts (just like I read a trumpet part here). I’m sure there are many free charts out there you can download.
