Sight reading musicians of Lemmy, do you hear the notes in your head as you read? (lemmy.world)

I can just barely read standard musical notation but it's far from fluent. I'm wondering if, with enough practice you can look at sheet music that you have never heard or seen before and sound it out in your head before ever touching your instrument?

Interesting! It sounds like you might be in the minority. Does it work both ways? Like can you hear a note immediately know what it is?
