How can we prepare so we display confidence and cool?<\/p>\n<p class=\"centerc\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WYQ1QOVqAfs?rel=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;autohide=1\" width=\"700\" height=\"393\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Two Roles: Musician and Performer<\/h2>\n<p>When we go to a show, we expect a certain level of professionalism.<\/p>\n<p>This may be different in the local coffee shop than in a large theatre, but we come with expectation.<\/p>\n<p>When we\u2019re playing music, we\u2019re musicians first. Our main focus should be on playing.<\/p>\n<p>But what about between tunes? What about walking on and off stage (even if <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/listening-audience-perspective\/\">\u201cstage\u201d is the living room<\/a>, and \u201caudience\u201d is made up of tolerent family members and pets)?<\/p>\n<p>When we are the center of attention, we\u2019re performers.<\/p>\n<p>We practice our music, but <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/guitar-performance-training\/\">what do we do to become better performers<\/a>? Here are 8 tips that can help us put on a better show.<\/p>\n<h3>#1. Every sound is part of the performance &#8211; be intentional<\/h3>\n<p>Once on-stage, every little click, thud, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/guitar-squeak\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">squeak<\/a>, pop, stomp, and plink is part of the show.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn\u2019t matter if we know what\u2019s the music and what\u2019s not. To listeners, every sound counts.<\/p>\n<p>If there are random sounds happening between tunes, or before playing, the audience has to decide that these are not important and to tune them out.<\/p>\n<p>When this happens, we\u2019re training the audience to ignore what they hear.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, if we\u2019re intentional and keep the noise down, they\u2019ll be more willing and able to focus on the actual music. They&#8217;ll be drawn in.<\/p>\n<p>This is like the difference between a heartfelt conversation in a quiet garden vs a crowded cafe. The intimacy we create with silence makes the intended communication more poignant.<\/p>\n<p>Which leads us to\u2026<\/p>\n<h3>#2 Tune quickly and quietly, start beforehand<\/h3>\n<p>We need to tune, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/tune-guitar-by-ear\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">tuning<\/a> is non-music noise. So we want to keep this extra noise down.<\/p>\n<p>We can practice tuning quickly and quietly. Each day in practice, we can become aware of how loud we\u2019re tuning. We can relax our jaws (which helps hearing) and focus all our attention on listening.<\/p>\n<p>We can also tune just before we go in front of people. This will make any adjustments go faster.<\/p>\n<p>Note: It\u2019s not uncommon to see professionals performers tuning loudly. That doesn\u2019t make it a good idea. Chances are, they would give a better show if they tuned more quietly.<\/p>\n<h3>#3 Plan the logistics &#8211; No fumbling<\/h3>\n<p>We often need to deal with<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a guitar case,<\/li>\n<li>a guitar,<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/free-guitar-sheet-music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sheet music<\/a>,<\/li>\n<li>a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/how-to-hold-a-guitar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">guitar support <\/a>or footstool,<\/li>\n<li>a chair or bench,<\/li>\n<li>a microphone,<\/li>\n<li>an amplifier or speaker<\/li>\n<li>or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/capo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">something else<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The show starts as soon as an audience sees us. So any fooling with \u201cthings\u201d is part of the show. For this reason, it\u2019s best to know what we\u2019re doing beforehand.<\/p>\n<p>If we don\u2019t prepare otherwise, we may make clumbsy mistakes. We may drop something, or make accidental loud noises. These can zap our confidence and turn our sensitive guitar show into a slapstick comedy.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, we can plan exactly where we\u2019ll walk to avoid tripping. We can plan the order in which we\u2019ll empty our hands of whatever we\u2019re carrying. (Do we put sheet music on the stand before or after we sit down? What do we do with the guitar when adjusting the height of the bench? When we open a guitar case, are we showing the audience our backside?)<\/p>\n<p>A bit of logistical forethought can go a long way to appearing professional and in control. This helps audiences to trust us, so they can relax and listen.<\/p>\n<h3>#4 Be friendly &#8211; people want to like you<\/h3>\n<p>As nervous as we may be, the truth is that very few people go to see someone play and hope that they\u2019ll flub it.<\/p>\n<p>When we take the time and\/or expense to see music, we want to like the performer. We want to love the music. We want to have a positive experience. That\u2019s the point of entertainment.<\/p>\n<p>One of the easiest things we can do as performers to help listeners enjoy themselves is to be friendly.<\/p>\n<p>They know that we\u2019re human. And they want to bond with us as performers. They want to feel as though they know us, at least a little. And they want their attendance to be validated (as opposed to watching a movie).<\/p>\n<p>If people clap between movements of a suite (generally a faux pas in classical music), it\u2019s okay. They didn\u2019t know any better. We don\u2019t need to give them the stinkeye.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to remember that the performance is for the audience, not the performer. As such, our friendliness cues them to relax and enjoy the show.<\/p>\n<h3>#5 Plan your talking &#8211; don\u2019t babble<\/h3>\n<p>A common rookie mistake is to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/talk-in-performance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">talk<\/a> too much.\u00a0 This can be either talking too much at one time (babbling), or talking between each and every song.\u00a0 Both become tedious to listeners.<\/p>\n<p>When introducing tunes, it helps to script our words beforehand, then forget it. This way we can be intentional about what goes in and what doesn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<p>We can first write and edit the introduction, then memorize it. Finally, we can put the script aside and speak naturally.<\/p>\n<p>Once we\u2019ve gone through the act of scripting it, we know exactly what we want to say. We don\u2019t need to recite our script word for word.<\/p>\n<p>Just the act of scripting will properly prepare us for the introduction.<\/p>\n<p>This adds confidence. We know exactly what will happen on stage. We don\u2019t have to wonder what we\u2019ll talk about. We don\u2019t have to think on our feet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note:<\/strong> Just to be clear, don\u2019t robotically recite a script. Write and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/memorize-music-classical-guitar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">memorize<\/a> a script, then forget it. You\u2019ll change small aspects of the wording in the moment, and it will sound natural and improvised.<\/p>\n<h3>#6 Poker face &#8211; no messup expressions or hedging<\/h3>\n<p>Audiences are there for the right notes. They care more about the right notes than the wrong notes.<\/p>\n<p>Many times, they\u2019re so focused on the right notes that they don\u2019t even realize that there were any wrong notes.<\/p>\n<p>And there\u2019s no need to tell them.<\/p>\n<p>When we make pained expressions or say \u201csorry\u201d, we bring attention to what is wrong. We communicate that we are not satisfied with the performance, and therefore they shouldn\u2019t be either.<\/p>\n<p>Telltale signs of mistakes or fumbles undermine performances.<\/p>\n<p>Even if the train comes completely off the track, we can calmly jump to another place in the music and keep going.<\/p>\n<p>Just as with kids and pets, audiences will follow our lead. If we communicate (visually) that all is well and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/polish-guitar-music-troubleshoot-tricky-spots\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">under control<\/a>, they\u2019ll accept that. Sure, they may notice the mistakes, but they&#8217;ll forgive them. They may even appreciate the vulnerability and courage it takes to shrug it off.<\/p>\n<p>This may take practice. The best practice is to keep the \u201cpoker-face\u201d (not let on) in practice, lessons, and any other time we play.<\/p>\n<p>Take the \u201cshould\u2019ve and could&#8217;ve\u201d expressions out of the visual vocabulary.<\/p>\n<h3>#7 Smile and look up between tunes when people clap<\/h3>\n<p>Smiling connects us with listeners and deepens the human communication between us. (see #4 above on being friendly)<\/p>\n<p>And as an extra bonus, it signals the body to relax. Smiling helps us to release anxiety and play better.<\/p>\n<p>When we acknowledge applause (again, no expressions of \u201cshould\u2019ve, could\u2019ve been better\u201d), we recieve the gift the audience has offered.<\/p>\n<p>This makes the performance a two-way street. It transforms the interaction from a lecture to a conversation. And from the audience perspective, this is often the point of attending a live performance.<\/p>\n<p>Note: If you&#8217;re playing with other people, resist the urge to talk to each other between tunes (unless it&#8217;s needed and intentional).<\/p>\n<h3>#8 Control what you can control &#8211; release the rest<\/h3>\n<p>We have to \u201cknow when to hold \u2019em, and know when to fold \u2019em\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Before we perform, we have the opportunity to adjust things to our liking. We can tailor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/practice-space\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the space<\/a> and situation so the listeners can have the best experience we can offer.<\/p>\n<p>This includes whatever we <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/cold-showers-performance-anxiety\/\">personally need to do our best<\/a>. We can choose the best chair, adjust the lighting, turn off the phone, avoid caffeine, etc.<\/p>\n<p>But once we\u2019ve done that <a href=\"https:\/\/classicalguitarshed.com\/kaizen-guitar\/\">preparatory work<\/a>, we have to release the outcomes and accept whatever happens.<\/p>\n<p>When we\u2019re playing, every ounce of our attention should be on the task at hand (playing the music as beautifully as possible).<\/p>\n<p>We have no control over other people or random events. Any attention we give them is attention taken away from what we\u2019re there to do (make music).<\/p>\n<p>The same is true with our bodies. We can prepare as well as we can, but come performance time, it is what it is. We do our best, and accept it.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Uncontrollable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/shaky-hands-guitar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">nerves<\/a>? Oh well. Focus on something specific.<\/li>\n<li>Make a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/no-mistakes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mistake<\/a>? No big deal. Keep going.<\/li>\n<li>Sweating like a pig? Great. It makes for a good show. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.classicalguitarshed.com\/love-classical-guitar-technique-practice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Focus<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>There will always be something we could have done better. If we want, we can always find something to make the performance a failure (or at least a partial-failure). But why bother?<\/p>\n<p>All we can do is prepare as best we can. Then come to table with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.richardnarroway.com\/single-post\/2017\/05\/31\/Virtuosity-vs-Generosity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">generosity<\/a>, love, and self-compassion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u2019s the difference between an amateur and a professional?
