If you've practiced your pieces you have nothing to worry about!. Some things you should remember are:

~Keep hydrated by drinking lots of water on the days leading up to the contest!.
~Get lots of sleep!
~Don't drink or eat food with dairy before your performance!. It gums up your throat and makes it difficult to play or sing!.
~Some musicians eat bananas, because of the beta-blockers (calms you down)!.
~HAVE FUN! Show your judges how much you love what you are doing!.

Relax!.!.!.deep breaths!.!.!.smile, because you are going to do awesome!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am really into doing musicals and plays and stuff my best advice is just to simply relax and have fun!. Practice as if you are performing!. If you have practiced and you feel confident in what you are doing don't worry about it go out there and have fun! Break a Leg!Www@QuestionHome@Com
