We just finished our end of the year recital where we had over 100 kids perform, and it got me thinking about performing music.
It is essential that if you are trying to learn an instrument, you perform. You might feel like you’re going to puke your guts out from nervousness, but performing is what ultimately builds confidence and helps you make progress. WHEN, (not if) you end up making mistakes, you learn from them and are able to improve your understanding of your instrument.
Make sure that if you are paying for music lessons you get to perform. Recitals and performances are a must, and you won’t be spending your money wisely without them.
Much Respect,
