avimuno -> How to practice 'performing on stage'? (Feb. 14 2011 4:36:25)
|
Hello everyone, Maybe this has been posted in the past so apologies if this is getting repeated. I am reaching the point where I get gigs more and more regularly. It's always to accompany dancers at parties, weddings etc... I have always been a nervous performer but I get by when accompanying. However, we do sometimes get asked to perform longer shows which means that the dancers ask me to play one or two solo pieces in between their numbers. This is my problem... I tend to freeze when playing in public, which makes playing solos very hard. It's a very uncomfortable feeling... everything is fine until I get on stage and all of a sudden, I literally loose my right hand... my arpeggio, picado, tremolo, alzapua... it's all gone! I know that performance is an art in itself and was wondering how do you guys practice it. Thanks. Saludos, Avi
