Theory is very good but reading and site readidng are not skills that help much as a diatonic player. Reading makes more sense if you are going to learn to play chromatic.

: I have to disagree with all the people who say you that it's important to learn to read music.

: If you're going to play classical, jazz, or something that requires a deep knowledge, then yes, you need to learn to read music.

: But if you're playing folk, rock, or blues, learning to read music won't be of much help.

: It's a good thing if you CAN but if you're just wanting to play along with Bob Dylan records or jam with a guitarist, it's not important.

: While every bit of music training will benefit you in any other musical thing you do, reading music is not always a priority.

: I can read music a little bit and I've never used it for the harmonica.
