What would you'll do to be able to sing in public without any stagefright or nerves?

Question

I've inherited my dad's father's singing voice and supposedly his nerves about singing solos. I'd like to break the pattern and sing those solos just like I was able to when I was 7, 8, 9 years old. Please help me.

Answer 1

I agree with Pip's advice. Also try breathing exercises, such as breathing deeply through pursed lips, holding it for a moment, and then breathing out as slowly as possible, whenever you start to feel nerves coming on. The strategy is two-fold: the extra oxygen helps calm you physiologically, and the intense focus on the breathing helps you reset emotionally.

I used to have intense stage fright, too, and this technique really helped. Good luck!

Answer 2

A certain amount of nervousness is healthy. If you're overcome, find someone to do duets with you, where you have solo parts for part of the time. Try smaller audiences, people you trust. Learn some relaxation techniques. I've done a lot of speaking. I'm always nervous. What I do is draw into myself
and get very quiet and gather myself. Then I just go out and once I get started the nerves settle down. You have to be willing to make a mistake or two and just go on like a professional ice skater.

Hang in there==a good voice should be used.

Answer 4

There are always little tricks, like looking at the space above the audience's heads, which makes them think you're looking at them when you're not, but my favorite way is to simply concentrate on the music.

Focus on the feelings behind the song, the emotions it's trying to convey, or it's message. When you're completely emersed, nothing else matters.

In other words: "What audience? Audience who?"

Answer 5

it depends on how do you feel about singing. if you like it and you're good at it, then enjoy it! (i usually freak out too before going on-stage, but once i realize that this is what i love to do and what i do best, i just worry about doing it good and enjoy it)
now, if you do it 'cause you have to...then sing something you feel comfortable with and feel it with your heart.
good luck!

Answer 6

start small.. find one group you are comfortable with and build up from there.. if it's just in the mirror right now then fine.. but keep pushing yourself.. move from the mirror to in front of a friend or two.. then keep pushing it up.. eventually you will build up the confidence you need to sing in front of larger groups...
