    For me, when I overpractice I get even more nervous and then I mess up badly. When I get nervous, I try not to think about the technical issues but I think about giving my best performance :)

      Kiara Eijo yesss!!! Same for me. I tend to over practice a ton and it just makes everything worse.

    My old flute teacher would make me do jumping jacks until I my heart rate increased then she had me play through a piece. She would say this simulated the feeling of nervousness thus practicing this way would make you "used to" playing nervous. =)

      This is good to try very occasionally. You may accidentally train your heart rate to RAISE while you're playing! Woops!

    When I'm playing in front of anybody who doesn't play the flute, sometimes I mess up (played a natural when I needed to do a flat etc.) I just pretend like I did it properly.
    Nobody knows
    Or maybe they do and they're just not saying anything about it
    Oh no

    I could have done this in December when I offered to perform at short notice. I hadn’t performed in front of audience for around two years, and luckily enough everyone was really supportive xx

    I'm glad I don't get nervous for auditions. 😬 I wish it was the same for performances 😂

  • @maximilianf2560
    @maximilianf2560 10 лет назад +1

    When I warm up before a performance, I only play the flute solo from the beginning of "O Waly, Waly" (a piece by Jay Bocook) after just a handful of long tones. It really calms me down ;)

    @Jxcob17 9 лет назад +7

    The problem for me is that it could be the easiest thing possible like hot cross buns or marry had a little lamb. As long as I'm playing in front of someone I'm gonna mess up.

    • @JustAnotherFlutist
      @JustAnotherFlutist  9 лет назад +7

      But does it really matter if people don't notice that you mess up? 😉

    How do you prepare for solos!?! I need to knowwwww 😭😭😭😭

  • @SiggeSvahn
    @SiggeSvahn 8 лет назад

    My best tips for serious supressing of stage fever: 1) In the room where you practice, put up a dark coat in the corner, representing the "threat" of a jury. 2) Practise with the maximum of expression you can possibly achieve - when making the concert just tell yourself that the jury/audience don't reserve to hear anything more elaborate than what you produced during rehearsing. Play it safe and prosper!

  • @Musicalinfluence

    Such interesting tips! ^^ I find the slow movements not that helpful but I'm just weird ;) something I do is breathing exercises (I'm a pianist, not a singer) and blow on my thumb (I don't know the science behind it, but it genuinely helps lower my heart rate). Love your vids, always good humour mixed with great content ^^

    The great master Quantz once mentioned that if you are nervous before a concert, then you should touch your fingers to your powdered wig and then play the concert anyway...

    When I did a scale test I was nervous of the teacher and I had the right time signature and rhythm but I stop like 2-3 times in the scale. Now I don't know if I want to redo it or not

    I had to perform a marching piece called Army of the Nile and I am in the front of the block leading a marching line and as a Trombone I am the most obvious in the beginning measures and I chocked so hard I couldn't play as before we began I made eye contact with the judges, I eventually came back in around the second string but I felt so bad I kinda left my other members of my section alone in the beginning
