Robin is currently away but he sent me ...Hi Paul, <br /><br />Robin is currently away but he sent me this reply to your comment:<br /><br /><br />Hello Paul<br /><br />Thanks for your comment. <br /><br />I think it definitely possible to control self doubt, naturally it fluctuates, influenced by <br />external events, but total elimination would, in my opinion, be undesirable. <br />It is the natural counterbalance to self confidence, which, if completely unchecked, could lead to complacency and inertia. <br />In its most positive form, it spurs the individual on to higher<br />achievement. <br />The artist must always be striving for greater heights. Confidence and self-doubt are, to me, yin and yang.<br /><br />All the great artists of the past had self doubt..........take the extreme example of Vincent van Gogh.<br />Read Segovia's comments on concert giving and also Horowitz's.<br /><br />'The superior man is always in distress at his lack of ability' Confucious.<br />(And of course the polar <br />opposite is also true!).<br /><br />Robin Hill<br /><br />So, from that I would say that self doubt is an essential part of the process. However, learning how to manage this, particularly in the early stages of a career, could be of value to many musicians.<br />If you do write more about the skills required I would be interested to read it.<br />Many thanks for your comment and kind words.<br /><br />AnnaAnnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425434566456496622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627764.post-34323879381781311812011-03-21T20:19:55.064+00:002011-03-21T20:19:55.064+00:00Hello Robin
This is a really interesting article ...Hello Robin<br /><br />This is a really interesting article and I would love your views on whether this self doubt can be overcome.<br /><br />My experience in practical psychology is that it can. Indeed, as you say, how you react to failure is key. This echoes others William Westney and Eloise Ristad.<br /><br />I have skills that can really can eliminate self doubt and wonder whether something like that is of interest to musicians?<br /><br />Thanks for a lucid and thought provoking post.<br /><br />Best wishes,<br />PaulAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165112429104108496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627764.post-38715493867678239832011-02-20T21:53:06.634+00:002011-02-20T21:53:06.634+00:00I think Bimperl was the Mozart family dog during M...I think Bimperl was the Mozart family dog during Mozart's youth. and that also had a dog or dogs in adulthood, dog's name(s) unknown.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08692084949156574132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627764.post-91801219159381267042011-02-20T19:36:12.863+00:002011-02-20T19:36:12.863+00:00Thanks very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!Thanks very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16425434566456496622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31627764.post-3379491900897472242011-02-20T15:29:33.201+00:002011-02-20T15:29:33.201+00:00nice blogg .

I know you hadn't expected to play it, but any jaws that hadn't yet dropped to the floor with your virtuoso performance of the planned programme, must have gone during that encore. You made quite an impression with the folk around me. The gentleman next to me commented that in all the time he had been attending these concerts he had not seen such fluency and mastery of an instrument.<br />Great programme.
