Unit Feedback Unit Title: Live Performance Name: Dylan Clements Date: 03.03.13 Comments:
I was surprised that you opted for this unit, Dylan. Youre very brave to go ahead with this considering your lack of experience. Youve identified your repertoire and you seem to have made appropriate choices for your vocal abilities. The most effective way to make sure you put on a good performance is to be well prepared, so practice is the key!
You need to assess the health and safety issues to do with a live performance. Think about as many potential hazards as possible and how they can be avoided or danger minimized.
Targets:
Aim to practice several times a week. Warm your voice up properly first and make sure you cool down after practicing.
Know your songs really well. Listen to recordings and really get them in your head.
You will need a risk assessment.
You need to develop something that tells people a little bit about you and the repertoire you will perform audience expectation
It may be an idea to test your performance out on a small audience first, just to get used to performing in front of people.
