Question: I dont understand what I did wrong when I thought everything was going right!.!.!.!.!?
Solofest, if you dont already know, is a singing competition done within a choir!. everyone in the choir tries out a song in Solo and the director chooses 5 people from his choir to go perform where other choirs from other schools have also chosen 5 people from thier choirs to perform and then its a competition!.

yesterday was Solofest auditions!. I sang Cry by Mandy Moore!. I thought I did really good!. Even when I was up there i was thinking I was doing well!. I didnt miss a note, i remembered all my words, my voice never cracked!. I basicly did everything pefectly!.

But after I finished and went back to my seat!.!.!.I recieved no complements!. Im not saying I have a big Ego and I know I did perfectly or I diserved to have everyone love me, im not saying that, but I have to admit i did expect one person to say they liked it!. There were people who went before me that their voice cracked, they forgot the words, or didnt have music at all and even they got complements!. Even a simple "That was cute" would have been nice!.

After the class Jessica came up to me and I guess I was looking kind of Sad because she said "you did do good you were just nervous" and while I was glad that she told me I did good I felt like I didnt really diserve it anymore!. I felt like she was just saying it to be nice!.

Now I dont know If I did good or bad, or what I even did wrong!. If I really did do as bad as im now thinking I did I want people to be honest with me and tell me what I did wrong so I could fix it for the next Solofest which is October 30!. The only person in the choir who I know would be completely honest about the things I messed up on is Davina and I dont want to go talk to her because she tries to make people feel miserable and like everyone in the world sucks at singing except her!. Her audition wasnt even that good!. It was to a little mermaid song but her voice kept cracking and i think people only liked hers because she wore a mermaid tail!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Sorry you are so upset!.
The place to get answers are from the teacher!. The teacher is the one most likely to have an honest opinion!.
As to why others got comments and you did not!. I wasn't there to see what was going on, but from being in competition many times, comments good or band from classmates mean nothing!.
You may have done exactly what everyone expected of you!.
You also sound a little jealous!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
