3 Reasons Why you Should Perform Music

Learning Music just as a hobby? Not keen to perform? Got Stage fright? Well, those should not be excuses should not stop you from performing music. Believe it or not, but it gives you more joy when you are singing or performing with or for someone else. The feeling is rewarding and no one plays music just for themselves. It is a form of expression and the best way to express it is to perform in front of others. Now, if you are just beginning to learn and feel like you are not ready to perform, then it’s okay to take some time to build you confidence but you must eventually perform. Performance should be the goal that drives you to play your instrument longer and commit more time to practice.

1. Music is The Best Teacher

Yes, your performances can be teacher you need. No one can teach you more than performances in terms of building musicianship. Musicianship is about training the student not just to be a player of an instrument, but to be a Musician. This is the only platform where you can be a self-critic, you yourself will be able to see/hear the shortcomings and areas that you want to improve on. It will teach you to be comfortable around other people and open up new ideas and ways to make your instrument sound better. Also, when you play things right, it boosts your confidence and your ability to play the instrument automatically upgrades.

2. Know your Instrument Inside Out

There are more to your instrument than its looks. It be a guitar, keyboard, drums or even your voice - it is not something that makes any sound, it is an object that if used right, can paint a story to the audience. There are so many dynamics and so many different possibilities of using your instrument to sound different and contribute to the song in the right way. Playing your instrument is not just about playing your notes right, it is about giving definition to a melody you play. All these things, although taught through technique but the real understanding only comes through experience and for that, you have to perform as much as you can, and learn from each experience.

3. Helps Build relationships

Performance is not just about you, it is about understanding those who stand with you on the stage - Complementing and supporting each other in a band. The idea of coming together and playing a song is a rewarding feeling. You understand the importance of each and every instrument, and learn from each other. Only if you prepare for performances, will you be able to discuss music with your peers and come up with ideas that will make the songs sound better. You also understand different influences and open up to the exploring different genres and styles of music and that makes you a better musician. As a musician you should always want to keep growing and learning new things. Also, you get a chance to interact with the audience which, will give you more encouragement to continue what you are passionate about.
