waiting for performance

Everybody has different habit of prepare for the performance, somebody prays, somebody eats candies, comebody looks at their loved one's pictures, ans what I do is eat one banana which helps me to calm down my stomach, then talk to my violin the smile. I love performing, so llok forward to each one of it, and so sometimes i get a little impatient the day before the performances.

I did feel nervous before when I was in the first few international competitions, I doubt about myself. Am I good enough to play the whole program without making big mistakes or forgetting the music? Am I good enough to attract the audience ear and grasp their heart throughout?

Now I think of nothing like that. I did my homework, I practise, I know the piece well, and I love the piece I play, and best of all, I have my Antonio with me on the stage, nothing will happen to me besides the beautiful music.

Life for me would be so different if without music and violin. From 3 years old, the time even I don't remember, I started the lovely relationship with the violin. A life. like air, like water, something I definitely can't live without. life and existence would be so meaningless if music is no longer in my short life. Thank God, for the most precious gift you has granted me.
