How to play for concerts and for exams
on: October 11, 2011, 06:22:38 PM
Well when I play for concerts I always practice my piece in front of other people. This helps you get used to an audience. I imagine that the audience is really stupid and will not notice if you play a wrong note. This really helps me to relax. Even realistically not everyone in the audience is going to be a piano virtuoso so theres no need to fret over tiny details.

I always imagine my examiner as my piano teacher then just perform the piece how I would normally.

I hope this helps.

Does anyone else have any tips
