I just registered and I have no idea how anything works around here, but this is my question.
I've been playing violin for 10 years and I know how to sight read music, but I always mix up the notes. If you show me a note individually, I know what it is, but when I'm reading an unfamiliar piece -- no matter how easy or hard -- I'll play the wrong note and not even notice. I mix up notes that are 2 above or below -- for example, I'll play a B as a G, or an F as an A. Sometimes I'll get through half a phrase before I notice that I'm a third off. Another thing I do is play the phrase on the wrong string, but with the right fingers, so it's a fifth above or below. The only reason I notice is because it doesn't sound right.
Is music dyslexia a thing, or do I just straight up suck at sight reading? (I am not dyslexic btw, I know dyslexic people sometimes struggle with sight reading but I've never had any problems with reading words or spelling or anything.)
