Özet: Our scientific article entitled "A bright representative of the composer school - Adil The aim of this study is to find out views on sight reading of undergraduate music education students who are mainly trained on bowed string instruments including the violin, the viola and the cello. The sub-problems of the research relate to the differentiation of the prospective music teachers’ views in terms of grade level, instrument education duration, and musical education duration. It is a descriptive study using literature review for qualitative data and survey methods for quantitative data. The study group consists of 43 string instrument students enrolled at Gazi University, Gazi Faculty of Education, Fine Arts Education Department, Music Education Branch during the 2021-2022 academic year. The quantitative pillar was carried out by using the Opinionnaire for Sight Reading on String Instruments (OSRSI). The opinion form is a 5-point Likert scale consisting of 35 items ranked across the options “Strongly disagree”, “Disagree”, “Neutral”, “Agree” and “Strongly agree”. The questions in the measurement tool have 7 dimensions. Dimension 1 is about the use of sight reading exercises in instrument lessons (4 items), Dimension 2 deals with practices to improve sight reading skills (4 items), Dimension 3 concerns attitudes towards new pieces for sight reading (2 items), Dimension 4 is related with another area of attitude towards new pieces for sight reading (5 items), Dimension 5 deals with difficulties encountered in sight reading (12 items), Dimension 6 is about factors affecting motivation in sight reading (6 items), and Dimension 7 covers the use of sight reading practices outside individual instrument lessons (2 items). The data were analyzed and interpreted with SPSS. The results revealed no significant relationship between the OSRSI scores and duration of instrument education or duration of music education. However, the grade level was shown to exert a significant effect on the scores obtained from the scale. These results can provide useful insights for developing strategies for music teachers and music education programs.
