My First Ever Concert

Hello everyone, I hope you are doing very fine. It's a beautiful Thursday, and I am very happy to be here again.

Early this month, I have had the opportunity to be hosted by my vocal coach. He organized an in-house concert for me, and it was so beautiful to have been hosted by him. Everyone around my state knows that he is good when it comes to music, and he is always known for excellence.

Last two years, I was so determined to grow musically, and I was all out to submit to someone to coach me. I wanted to be better, so I met people, and their prices were too much for me to pay. I felt so bad, as I really wanted to learn music and know it for myself.

So my church organized a music competition, and my friend told me that I should contest. I did not want to because I felt my church did not do the kind of music I wanted to do. But my friend did not stop telling me to contest, and I finally agreed to contest.

We start the process; we were trained for four weeks, and finally we were picked for the contest. On the day of the competition, I was so nervous, and I almost backed out because during the four weeks of training, every instructor told me that I was not doing well, so I got discouraged, but my friends told me that there was no harm in trying. Many contestants did so well, and I felt so down. I just told myself that when I get to the stage, I will not do too much and I will be very simple so that I don't make any mistakes. When I got to the stage, I did unimaginable things that I didn't plan for, and after my turn, the judges told me that I did so well, and that is when I met my vocal coach. When he was commending me, he told me that he was going to train me for free and make me grow. I was so happy, I did not even wait for the next when I called him to start the training. The first day he trained me, I started singing on a high pitch. Singing on high pitch was very difficult for me to do, but my coach showed me some techniques on how to do it.

After one year of training with him, he organized an in-house concert for me. He told me to invite people to come around and watch me sing, and after the concert he would assess my performance.

I started rehearsing with him and my background vocalist, together with some instrumentalists. The rehearsal did not even look so well; he was even telling me that I was not really doing very well.

When the D-Day came, I sang my best, and I was happy that I did not sing the Sam way I was singing before I met him.

Hold on to your dreams and keep growing in your craft.
