Emmons, Shirlee.
Power performance for singers : transcending the barriers / Shirlee Emmons, Alma Thomas. - New York : Oxford University Press, 1998. - 1 online resource (xvi, 320 pages)
Includes bibliographical references (pages 313-316) and index.
The power of performance -- This thing called performance -- The characteristics of peak performance -- What is mental toughness -- Preperformance -- The performance cycle : plans and routines -- The self and performance : you, the person; you, the performer -- Physical well-being and relaxation -- Setting goals -- Developing self-confidence through positive thinking -- The art of concentrating -- Distractions -- Dealing with anxiety -- Imagery in performance -- Memory -- The coach's place in singer's preperformance work -- Performance -- Exploring and planning "meaning" for performance -- The audition and the competition -- The song recital and the staged performance -- The coach's and/or accompanist's place in singers' audition, competition, and performance work -- Fear in performance -- Postperformance -- Postperformance management -- Staleness and burnout in performers -- Mental rehabilitation following vocal injury or illness. pt. 1. 1. 2. 3. pt. 2. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. pt. 3. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. pt. 4. 20. 21. 22.
To perform well in today's highly competitive world where technical skills have been advanced to an unprecedented degree, a singer must be able to handle incredible pressure within the performing arena; his or her ability to deal with this stress will often determine whether he or she will succeed. Why, then, do singers with less technical skill sometimes out-perform stars? Why do some stars suddenly stop performing? What is that mysterious factor that makes an electric performance? Consistent, competent performances do not depend solely upon superior vocal skills, nor are they a matter of luc.
