Defining performance not just as an act on a stage with an audience, but also as the simple act of playing music, she explains the difference between stage fright and music performance anxiety. Apart from physical symptoms, she mentioned some symptoms that parents and educators could watch out for in their children, like avoidance, procrastination, technical errors in music playing, outbursts, and more.
