Playing in church is great! I played at Christmas for the first time in years and years and I'm going to play again next month. I suppose it depends on the church and the music director, but I think in general it's a very supportive audience.

I would think, though, that anything "last minute" about the experience would make it more nerve-wracking than not. Treat it like a recital, and I'm sure you'll do wonderfully!

Thanks Karen...they are a very supportive audience and are always asking when I'm going to play next.
Funny how that doesn't seem to help the nerves....haha But I imagine it's just a matter of gaining confidence and just going up there to have a good time. Which, I really did enjoy myself yesturday and just had fun with it.....I actually look forward to the next opportunity. (a good sign !)
The music director also happens to be my teacher...hehe That's a great opportunity for you! Playing at church is amazing! I hope I'll get to do the same someday. How's your KB? : ) I always take hope in the idea that maybe at least one person will gain something positive from hearing my music, even if I do poorly. I'm glad you played. Good for you! Playing in church is good because you're almost guaranteed of getting a good audience response. I recommend it highly. I find that practicing voo-doo is a good way to relieve tension. In a short while, you should be feeling needle-like pain your knees and toes. Wrong blog. John......what's a KB ?
