Performance Anxiety can affect most musicians at one time or another. Pre-performance butterflies in the tummy may be unpleasant but they can give an important edge to a performance. Some players hover around the fringes of anxiety, but it is when we cannot make the switch from anxiety to excitement that the problems begin. It's not your fault that you get very nervous before performing to others. It is the natural way your brain programmes its information. By changing that information in the unconscious mind you will be able to make the switch so that you are calm and in control next time you perform. By using the techniques in this book, you will learn to relax and take things as if they are completely routine. You will develop new ways of thinking and behaving that will guarantee your success. Whilst this book is aimed at the adult performer, there are some thoughts included for the younger pupils to learn how to keep calm and relaxed before any big events.

Susan Whykes has an MA in Psychology for Musicians with Sheffield University. Part of the degree course was spent researching into aspects of Performance Anxiety. This raised many questions but found few solutions. Whilst working as a full-time music teacher and Tutor Mentor with Essex Music Services she has identified techniques used in sports pyschology and other sources of life enrichment and has used them to great benefit with her pupils and peers.
