In reading what you do, I feel as if I can hear you playing it. You must be very devoted to be able to stick to that ritual each time. In reading what you do, I feel as if I can hear you playing it.

As in, walk to the starting line, jump three times, shake left foot three times, place left foot on starting block, open and close left hand three times, touch left toe, etc.... I think many athletes do the same thing -- sounds like musicians might do the same thing! I once dated a runner who would begin his races exactly the same way.

I really don't think those kinds of things are superstitios, just little rituals we go through! We all need rituals!<br/>Good luck at Carnegie Hall!

I played flute for years and barely remember more than my B-flat scale. Good luck with your concerts. I'm sure you'll be smashing. Oh wait, that's bad luck to wish good luck--so break a leg. Or is that only for actors? So confusing, these superstitions! What dedication! I played flute for years and barely remember more than my B-flat scale. Good luck with your concerts.
