[en] In our research we examined 10-14 years old students' music reading skills with eye tracking analysis in different music schools in Luxembourg, Germany and Hungary. Our aims were to explore certain music reading strategies, reveal the characteristics of expert sight-readers and also to find text characteristics. During the examination students got six different musical examples (three for rythm reading, three for singing from Zoltán Kodály) that appeared on a computer's screen, and after one minute silent reading they performed them.The results suggest that the knowledge of musical patterns strongly influences not only the duration and accuration of a musical performance, but the fixation counts, and also gender differences were revealed. Our further aim is examining the relationship between the development of reading and music reading skills.
