The way you could start with your guitar performance is to set up a reduced show in the setting of your own house. Your audience could be your own family folks. There could be several chances for practicing your music in the house environment where you could even ask your other family fellow members or pals to play their music too. This of course needs some planning to organize a domestic performance and for your own preparation also.

But what happens if you detest the idea of performing? There is one way you could still practice your guitar and that is to play in secret and imagine that you are playing in front of a crowd. One step further is to put your children’s teddies on the chairs. In these types of pseudo shows, you must be true to your self and diligently play every piece of your original plan from start to the finish and if you make a mistake, what can be done? You perhaps would like to ignore the slips and carry on playing as usual, in this easy setting. This would ultimately result in your enhancing the level of self confidence and self control as well, and this would give you an opportunity to learn from your errors of guitar playing.

This is also an splendid time to tape your performance for later rating. The recording plan need not be made into something elaborate, as you have your cell phone and mp3/4 player, which can make these tasks very easy. Making a recording is similar to having a critic in the audience and listening to other musicians is also beneficial. You must have great dreams to be with the top rungs of guitarists and this can be done when you endlessly listen to others playing who are superior to you. You must exercise the same kind of passion, which you would display in a performance when you practice you guitar pieces, or memorizing songs. As you memorize your music you will also observe your attitude, posture and your tension level. The joy you feel when you practice will probably be with you when you execute the piece of music in front of the populace and will also reach your audience.
