BENEFITS OF RECITALS

  • Boosts Confidence: Performing in front of an audience encourages students to overcome fears, bolstering their self-confidence.

  • Improves Presentation Skills: Recitals offer a platform for students to present themselves and their skills, which is a valuable life ability.

  • Teaches Responsibility: Learning to play a piece flawlessly requires discipline and commitment, fostering a sense of responsibility.

  • Encourages Musical Mastery: The preparation needed for a recital encourages students to fine-tune their abilities, leading to a better understanding and mastery of their instrument.

  • Promotes Time Management: Balancing practice with other commitments helps students develop effective time management skills.

  • Strengthens Emotional Expression: Recitals allow students to express their emotions through music, fostering emotional intelligence.

  • Inspires Peer Learning: Watching fellow students perform can inspire them to try new techniques and styles.

  • Fosters Teamwork: If performing in a group, students learn to listen and adapt, fostering cooperative skills.

  • Develops Resilience: Not every performance will be perfect. Learning to handle mistakes on stage helps students develop resilience and problem-solving abilities.

  • Enhances Appreciation for Music: Being part of a recital can deepen students' appreciation for music and their understanding of its role in society and culture.

Each time you play music, it becomes new. This is one way I’ve been thinking about memory and the present, past and future times all fitting together. I called it an exquisite moment. It’s an exquisite moment because the audience and the situation of performing allows us, requires us, to think of that moment. Very often we go through life without thinking about that moment. We talk about mindfulness but we’re not very mindful, most of us.
