I liked the sound I made and the rhythm and feel was good. I felt I got the message across and although you can't see it here I used good posture and body language. I've been working hard on the diction of a few of those words and I could hear that they were generally better this time.
 * Plus**

There were a few bits at the start when the pitch wasn't as good as it could have been, but that settled down pretty quickly. I think I needed to have the backing track a little louder and perhaps a bit closer to me, I'll have to organise my set up a bit earlier.
 * Minus**

I got pretty nervous, I didn't think I would. But, still it didn't have a bad impact, I remembered to breathe deep. It was interesting looking around at the audience, I could see they really enjoyed my performance.
 * Interesting**

__**IMT (sample response):**__ Really good job Olivia, you've made some good comments about your performance here. Make sure you keep working on..... You are going to perform this work and two others in your performance SAC, I suggest you do this one second because..... Have a listen to ......... who did a great performance of this song. Here is a great webpage with some tips on body language in performance:

I agree with Matt's comments on the recording, it sounds like........ but perhaps you could....... to achieve this, perhaps we could make an exercise to help with these.

Great job Olivia! those sound like great comments from **IMT.** It's been great hearing this piece get better! Remember some of the strategies we've talked about for dealing with performance anxiety, remember to........ Don't forget to walk on to the stage and bow properly at the end.
