For my performance I was advised not to use a microphone due to the volume of my voice that was already loud enough for the audience. This caused an immediate loss of confidence even before my performance as I could not imagine my self performing properly without a microphone pre and during it. Consequently instead of standing up right in which would have created both engagement with the audience and improved vocal quality I frequently looked at my guitar in which subtracted the value of the performance. In hindsight I should have asked to use the microphone or should have just performed with it off to generate a better result. In terms of criticsm I strained my voice in parts but had improved that flawed aspect greatly during the practise sessions and other than that already discussed was the non engagement with audience members and eyes down cast to my instrument.
I think it is important that I redo this performance as I did not reflect the adequate presence and musical applicability of a confident performer due to loss of confidence and my vocal strain problems. For next time I will reduce the prospect of these occurrences from happening next time through continuation of practise in terms of the techniques taught in the course so far.
