    The melody is bright, happy and cheerful! It has fanfare like intervals and rhythms. It has a number of different contours and shapes to it.
    Geoff generally does small crescendos up to the highest point in the melody and diminuendos as the melody goes lower. At the end of some long notes there is very effective use of vibrato which seems to get faster toward the end of the note, there also seems to be a crescendo at this point in the note.

    Matt:
    This is a really good recording of Geoff Payne and the Melbourne Symphony playing the Lovelock trumpet concerto. Make some comments on the nature of the melody and how Geoff treats it in his interpretation.
    Student:
    The melody is bright, happy and cheerful! It has fanfare like intervals and rhythms. It has a number of different contours and shapes to it.
    Geoff generally does small crescendos up to the highest point in the melody and diminuendos as the melody goes lower. At the end of some long notes there is very effective use of vibrato which seems to get faster toward the end of the note, there also seems to be a crescendo at this point in the note.

    Student (example):(sample response):
    Plus
    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.
    ...
    Interesting
    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.
    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.
    Matt (sample response):
    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.
