300 Progressive Sight Reading Exercises for Bass Guitar by Robert Anthony

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.

LARGE PRINT versions are available. They are linked on the aforementioned site, or can be searched for on Amazon.

Finally, some fundamental pages on scales and rhythms have been included for convenience. The scale pages are the only place in this book where tablature has been used.
