Why Read?
Thanks to the above contributors. I am a CG player & so am encoraged by the replies so far. I do however remember going to a local Nat King Cole tribute evening & talking to the players at interval time. The trio had played so well I was knocked out, even more so to find that they had been supplied their score parts 30 mins before starting & were having to sight their parts. This really knocked me out, note perfect at sight, whew! obviously much practice required here.
I therfore come back to my start point, why bother to memorise if the reading ability is developed to this level, where sighting a piece at speed is achievable?.........
