RE: Stage fright- play play play!!!

merry- and becky--

everyone says it gets better as you go- i think the best way to get over stage fright is to play for people. but, that doesn't just mean once in a while- pros that perform, perform all the time. if you could just grab someone and tell them to come listen to you- a teacher, parent, friend, whomever- just tell them you want to play something- and play. play for anyone that will listen. it's easier said than done, of course- i can't say i do it, but i'm sure that if we all played more often- OUTSIDE the practice room, we'd have less anxiety while performing. maybe play at a nursing home, or something like that, anywhere you can and as often as you can. play in church- whatever. i think this will help- it's getting that' s the hard part- as with anything!

good luck
