What the Research Says

Quality Beats Quantity

Research shows that practice accuracy and strategy — not hours logged — predict performance quality. Structured, feedback-rich practice is the foundation of expert performance.

Duke, Simmons & Cash, UT Austin, 2009; Ericsson et al., 1993

Performance Anxiety Is Trainable

A meta-analysis of 14 studies found that cognitive-behavioral interventions produce a medium effect on reducing music performance anxiety. Nerves can be systematically trained into confidence.

Faur et al., Babeș-Bolyai University, 2022

Mental Practice Enhances Physical Practice

Structured mental rehearsal — visualizing the audition room, the jury, the performance — improves timing, articulation, and reliability. It's not a shortcut; it's a complement to physical practice.

Keller, 2012; Meng & Luck, 2024
