Before learning a new piece, i like to listen to some of it so i can grasp its elements and then proceed to read the sheets. However, i've heard from some musicians now and then that i should be able to correctly play etudes without listening to them first (by reading sheets only), they say that's quite of "cheating" and i should be able to play without listening to it first
