Tick, tock, tick, tock… I was next in line to play a part of my solo for a chair order test. Was I going to play well, or was I going to play terrible like before ? I couldn’t believe that I had put myself in this situation. After hours, and hours of practicing my solo, I still felt nervous. While students were playing their part, I was studying, and analyzing my part. Then came my turn to play... ‘‘Sofia,’’ Mrs. Ward said. It was my turn. The whole room became silent, so I quickly sat up in position, and began. Once I began playing my first note, I kept calm, keeping my air tone nice, and steady. I moved on to the last note, and finished. Whenever the entire class went Mrs. Ward gave us our chair order.
