As I entered the concert hall of Sonoma University, I finally felt the confidence in myself to play on stage. At the last concert I played, I had stage fright and was stressed about messing up in front of numerous people. But in this moment, I threw my concerns away and played like it was a normal rehearsal during school in 7th period. After performing, my heart was pounding like crazy. I felt super happy that the time I practiced and rehearsed paid off.
My favorite part of this moment was the clinic, the clinic director helping us to grow into better performers for the Seattle Festival. This moment shall be unforgettable.
