Specialist Knowledge and Skills

Goal setting:
Self-confident guitar playing (preferred picking) while singing, all confront of the audience.
My strategy is to warm up first. First of all my hands, to play the guitar properly and so that I can practice the melody better. Because I am new to singing at the moment, I don't have strategy yet for that. I think what I should try the next time, is to do some exercises, where I go from a low to a high tone, so I will be more confident to sing higher infant of others.

Audition process:
What I do when I choose a song to play at performances, is to look for something what is in my kind of vocal range, but still is challenging. We had the first and second Fuse night already. At the first one I chose a song fro Adele. The song starts low first and then ends with an high highlight. Because I couldn't sing the high bi in the song first, I tried to sing it an octave lower. At the second one I sang something higher, but because I don't practice every day it sounds a bit monotonous.

Effective auditioning skills:
What I notices, is that when I play guitar infront of an audience, that I am not nervous at all. When I have to sing or something else, it is completely different. My hands start to shake, my neck will be dry in seconds. The reason, why I am not nervous at all, when I play the guitar, is that I started playing seven years ago and I now that I am good, because many people told me already that they like to hear me playing. But I started singing just at the beginning of this school year. I think it will take quite a while for me to be more confident .

Instrumental and musicianship skills:
In playing guitar, I think there is not really something that I can improve on, except for playing while singing. What I will definitely improve on the next time on my singing skills, is my higher vocal range.

Understanding of context:
I think my best skill in playing the guitar, is to read notes. I can play a piece, even when I never heard of this song or played it before.
When I buy new equipment for my guitar, I get on really quickly it. I researched nearly everything, what is available for the guitar, so there is not  really a problem, that I do not now how it works.

Verbal and non-verbal communication skills:
I think I can show the emotions that some song have to the audience, at least change the mimic of my face. I have to improve in presenting something, for example just talk about a random topic or telling jokes before I start singing.

Personal presentation skills:
I think when I really now what I am doing I can be really good in presenting infront of others. I can keep eye contact and so on.

Self-analysis and self-appraisal:
My vocal range is can be very high when I use all the techniques, like straighten the body and take a deep breath and when I don't have to sing infant of others of course.
