DESCRIPTION:
I think you can't be afraid when you go on stage. If you are afraid, you're not gonna do well enough. then, you'll just be trying to replicate what other people want you to do, and replicating is never the way to convince people that you know you're doing.

Part of being on stage involving the audience of the performance and connecting with the orchestras as well, is not thinking twice about everything you're doing. You just have to be really well prepared, as prepared you can be. you never completely ready you know, you just do your best.

I think really the best thing to do on stage whether you've been some place or not, is just going into it, looking forward to it, expecting to be a lot of fun and realizing the audience wants to have fun. They want to enjoy the performance. Or if not have fun, they want to at least have a satisfying experience. So they are gonna look for that in the music. And if you have a satisfying experience being on stage, then I think that really helps with a unity of the performance.
