5 Tips to overcoming stage fright/performance anxiety in music |TBT Trumpet Masterclass #8
I received a question today about performance anxiety/stage fright.

I suffered from it HEAVILY years ago😬

Thought I would address the exact things I did to overcome my performance anxiety during my undergrad. Give you some tips and advice.

6 Tips (not in order):

It’s definitely a mind game.

1. Have to be honest with yourself…are you really practicing enough or efficiently?

2. Stop comparing yourself to your peers. Admire from afar. Take a break from social media if someone else’s skills frustrate you instead of motivate you.

3. Be objective in how you critique yourself (call it for what it is without a negative label)

4. Reverse engineer the symptoms you get when you get nervous and create similar feelings during your practice

I watched from beginning to end, I always think I’m not doing well enough, I feel that people are judging me, I really appreciated this video, and I’m going to watch the video on learning jazz standards as recommended.

I have allot more hope now after watching this.

Me playing with the whole band *plays everything perfectly fine and sounds good* me when the band director calls on me the play *plays like a person who plays flute trying to buzz*

[christinadone]

I hope this helps me because I have to solo for some jazz performances and I always start shaking and I can't control it which causes me to mess up

Hey black trumpeter! I am not sure if you take request but can you make a video about advice for becoming an expert?
