Tips, Tricks & Piano Playin' Resources

How do I relieve stress while playing piano?

Something new has come up now–I’m scared of playing piano in front of my teacher now.

I’m in a rap group with two of my friends, a music band, I’ve never gotten scared before ever in any of it–I perform great in all of it. Recently, in front of my piano teacher, I’m getting scared playing my pieces for her.

What should I do to relieve my stress? What should I be thinking about when I’m performing to my teacher, or during a recital?

For stress and/or anxiety , I suggest relaxation exercises, see http://relaxation-antistress.blogspot.com/
