Sixty seconds a day until you stop counting lines.

Random notes, instant feedback, no flashcards. The only way to read music fluently is recognition, and recognition only comes from repetition.

How to use it

Short and daily beats long and occasional

Reading is recognition, not calculation. You are not trying to work each note out faster — you are trying to stop working them out at all.

Treble clef, on the staff only. Nine notes. Stay there until the number stops climbing.

One round a day, same settings. Watching it climb is what gets you back tomorrow.

Ledger lines next, then the bass clef, then both together. Each step will drop your score at first.

Keep going

The staff as a graph, both clefs, and the landmark method this drill is built on.

Once you can name notes, the next thing is playing them in time.

Reading is step three. The steps before it are the keyboard and your hands.
