It’s not enough to say, “stand tall!” There are lots of reasons we can communicate.
- Your instrument. Posture affects tone.
- Your mind. An engaged posture can reflect – and affect! – an engaged mind.
- Your colleagues. Seeing you physically engaged is a silent way to show your presence in rehearsal.
- Your communication. In performance, your physical presence will be a big part of how your audience receives your music.
- Your preparation. You will want to convey professionalism in performance, and that comes from practice.
