Deep Memory
The Classical Guitarist’s Answer to Performance Anxiety
The biggest cause of stage fright among performing classical guitarists is the fear of having a memory problem, of forgetting the score. This booklet addresses the causes of that fear and the solution, a process of deep memory. More than visualization, this study teaches internalizing the music and as a result playing effortlessly without the fear of forgetting even one note. For guitarists who perform, whether in front of two people or two thousand. For students who perform for juries or for competitions. Though designed for classical guitarists, the principles can be applied to any form of guitar playing
