Don’t Just Rehearse the Notes—Rehearse the Moment

Intentional Musicianship

Watch out, I am doing the edits in this short episode to learn a little bit. In this 5-minute episode of Intentional Musicianship, Jeff Price invites you to think differently about how you prepare for performance. It's not just about the music—it's about how you show up in the moment.

You’ll learn:

• Why mindset matters more than muscle memory

• How to rehearse the moment, not just the material

• The power of micro-adjustments in shaping musical presence

• What your body language communicates before your first note

Quick Action Steps You Can Use Today:

1. Define your emotional goal for the performance.

2. Practice your stage entry and first breath as part of your run-through.

3. Tweak one thing each time you rehearse.

4. Watch yourself perform without sound—and adjust what the audience sees.
