	The Wessar


	Sight Reading Simplified


	The Wessar is a unique electronic teaching aid set to revolutionize worldwide music sight reading when it is launched later this year. Battery operated and simple in use, the page-size device is placed on the music stand and encourages continuity in eye movement through a series of illuminated and extinguished back lit bars of music. Teachers in the UK, Hong Kong, Singapore, New Zealand and India have had the opportunity to see the Wessar prototype in action and the response has been phenomenal.

		The Wessar (The Wiltshire Electronic Sight Reader) is the brainchild of Dr Christopher Wiltshire. A forty-year career as a professional musician and teacher (covering composition, arranging, conducting, accompanying, academic research, adjudicating and examining) has given him vast practical teaching experience on which to draw.

		“I think the Wessar will be a great help to students and teachers. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to my students.” Professor Eleanor Wong – Senior Lecturer (Keyboard) Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts:

“Over the past thirty years of examining, I have travelled extensively throughout Asia, Australasia, Europe, and the Middle East as well as North and South America. From Barnsley to Bombay, Brisbane, Berlin and Buenos Aires, the one examination activity with which candidates consistently have most problems is sight reading. This has led me to develop the Wessar (pictured), a stand alone device to encourage continuity in sight reading – as one teacher expressed it “A brain-trainer for the eyes ”.”
