Merry Christmas everyone!!!! I have never really been
a nervous singer. I have been a solo singer MANY
times. In fact, I've been soloing my eyeballs out
this Christmas. Here's my problem. I'm 23 and I have
just returned to college after a short break (3 yrs).
I went in to sing my first jury and was so nervous I
was shaking terribly and really nauseated. (So much so
that I thought I may have needed to leave the stage.)
Needless to say, I was terribly sharp. I am so
disappointed with myself and I would sincerely
appreciate any advice or stories to help me overcome
this new problem. The nerves only crept into one
public performance, but I want to know how to control
myself for future situations. Thank you so much.
Kelly
