Re: When you only get one chance

There are a huge number of ways of working through a mistake in a concert...however, I am inclined the best way of getting over any error is to simply shrug it off and maintain a high level of concentration. This sounds very simple, but is not.

However, I would certainly try to memorize the tough spots in the music and not sweat over the easier parts. Professionals tend not to make many glaring errors because they usually enjoy performing in the spotlight...

I would see this exerience as a positive way of reinforcing good concert etiquette and sometimes even smiling or seeming to enjoy yourself reaps huge rewards in that it eases the audience as well.

Many times effective playing is simply doing your best and being yourself. Goals are only attainable if you really want them!...
