Serious players of any kind should learn how to read, period.

Richard Hunter sez:
&lt;<the session I described in a previous message to this list,
where the producer's first words to me were "you can read, right?",,,,  The
ability to read simple melodies on a G clef is enough to get the gig in
many cases>>

I got a studio gig recording harmonica for a public school project on Warner&nbsp;
Bros. because I had told the studio engineer that I read music. He&nbsp;
recommended me to the producer over the other harmonica players on his roster&nbsp;
(none of whom could read). The producer was thrilled that he could speak&nbsp;
fluent music with me, on paper and in discussion. Session went very well and&nbsp;
I am on call for any further Warner Bros projects recorded at this particular&nbsp;
studio.

Serious studio players should learn to read.
