Jaron Putnam SOHH Ch. 2 Summary

Jaron Putnam SOHH Ch. 2 Summary

Soprano On Her Head Chapter 2:

All of us have a panel of judges in our mind. We may see them as dark blobs without shape or form. They might have a very clear form. Maybe they are our parents, or a previous teachers, or jury members for voice lessons. No matter what form they take the should absolutely not have control over us. We need to learn to overcome our fears. We need to understand that it doesn't matter what they think about us. It only matters who we are and what we want to give. We need to feel power against our judges. And we can. It is something that we can accomplish. It takes work but we can do it.

Key concept: We have power over our fears in performing. We can even see them as allies.

Key Terms: Judges


Making Connections: I would like to try this exercise of putting my fears and judges into form, and then telling them to leave. At the very least I need to realize that I have control over my life, and I shouldn't let my fears control my life.
