If you mean sight reading it's a skill and to learn to sight read very well sight singing will teach you!. It's a class in all community colleges and it's helped me beyond the scope of my imgaination!. One thing that always helps is that while I'm sight reading I know what it's suppose to sound like and so when I play if I hit a wrong note, I know it!. You also must practice sight reading for your individual instrument (piano in the case the you mentioned) and you learn to read ahead of where you actually are playing!. The Turkish March is entirely sight readable but it's not easily sight read!. Yes in most cases the Musician memorizes the notes (in piano your not suppose to have the score in front of you at a recital; your suppose to memorize the piece) (Franz Liszt once made a bet with an amateur composer and the composer said he could write a piece Listz couldn't sight read!. Listz took him on and it was this horrible piece that was stupidly fast and in the end it ended with Franz Listzs hands playing two chords far away from Each Other and a note in the middle!. Franz Listz had a huge nose and he bent down and played the note in the middle with his nose; this story quite possibly didn't happen but it's funny anyways)!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Mozart's Turkish March is really not THAT fast!. Fast, yes, but not as fast as some Bach I've been playing lately!. I was trying to find it to look at the speed, but my piano bench is a filled to overflowing!. So maybe it's just because I found it very easy!.
Anyways, to answer your question, it depends on the person, or the piece!. When you know notes really well, you don't have to "think" much!. Sometimes, if the fast, fast part is really short, as in Bach's Prelude No!.9, you can memorize it, and look at your fingers!. It takes practice, and don't try playing anything really fast unless you know your notes well!.

You do it by practicing enough that you have the MUSCLE MEMORY!.!.!. so when you are playing fast, all you are doing is scanning the notes to remind you where your fingers are supposed to be based on hours of practice!.
The same holds true on a typewriter!.!.!. when you are typing fast, you aren't really thinking about where your fingers are going!.!.!. you just think in general terms of what words you want to form and the muscle memory takes over!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

It takes work!. Your fingers have to have been accustomed at just glancing at a note and knowing exactly where your finger goes!.
Say there's an A note on the piano!. I just know exactly that it's an A note so I, from muscle memory, put my finger there!.
It's just getting used to where your fingers go and knowing the staffs very well!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Practice , Practice Practice!. There is often memorization, but reading them playing them become one after a good deal of dedicated time!. It's the same precesses your brain uses when reading the written word, or reacting to things going on around you!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
