Does anyone else love being able to sight-read? I know that's kinda weird, that's why I'm asking. I wanna see if more people hate it or love it! Some people find it annoying when they're asked to sight read but it's one of the things I'm actually really good at so I get excited when I'm asked to sight-read because I know I'll be able to impress my teacher. I'm interested to know your guys' experiences.

(also what are the differences in sight reading from one instrument to another?)

I like sight-reading more than I used to, but it's still not my favorite thing. Basically, now that I *can* sightread some medium-level songs in piano, I like it a lot better.
Sight-reading in viola is a lot easier than sight-reading in piano, at least in my opinion. (But it makes sense - you only have one or two notes at a time to read on the viola.) I'm certainly a lot better at sight-reading on the viola, though I think that's also because I play viola in orchestra, so I wind up getting a lot of practice sight-reading and trying to keep up with the orchestra, which I don't really get in piano. -
sight reading for me is pretty hard on clarinet then again it's barely been a year since I started playing but I do think its fun and it makes me a better player.

I don’t really like sightreading. I need to hear things first before I’m able to play them.
However, I do look up to people who are able to sightread well. -
i sightread very well, but like WanderlustStardust I really like to hear things first.

It depends on the instrument and clef, but for the most part I can sight read quite well.

Sight-reading is one of my most favorite parts!
