Pit Orchestra! Something that takes a lot of dedication, and effort. Pit Orchestra performs for plays, typically in high school. When I did Pit Orchestra last year, I had 6 weeks to learn almost 30 pieces of music, so that they could be performed along with the actual musical. It is extremely fun, but also extremely hard.
Key signatures! key signatures are going to kill you if you don't know your chromatic scale well enough. I still remember one of the songs where it was almost like every time I would blink, the key signature would change!
Confidence! Something that you will need a lot of! When you're playing in front of an audience, you must play to your full potential and not freak out. My first performance I was mortified, petrified, and any other "fied" word that could describe how I felt. I had to have some of my friends to calm me down.
Focus and Determination! I can not even tell you how hard it is for me to focus, especially when I'm setting next to my best friends. I know talking is one thing I can't live without, but I was being depended on to bring the audience what they came for so I soon buckled down.
Performance! The best part of Pit Orchestra! I loved performing on most nights of the week to be able to entertain hundreds of people! I love Pit Orchestra so much! I'm looking forward to it this year, Beauty and the Beast!
