[quote=Anonymous]My kid is in a similar situation. He signed a commitment paper in the beginning though, stating he commits to practicing and playing in the concert. He is going to continue. He is afraid he will sound terrible and that he can only do one song. I told him that practice makes progress (I think I got that somewhere here) and that I will be thrilled if he sounds like a screeching cat, doesn't matter to me at this point. He seemed mollified. He makes it sound like everyone else can play really well, which seems weird to me, unless everyone is getting private lessons. Anyway, he wanted to do this. I explained the commitment. We talked over several weeks about whether he wanted to do this. He did. He took a risk and he knows he doesn't have to do it next year. He knows I feel it's important that he keep his commitment this year. He also grudgingly agrees, he just hates playing.[/quote]
