Singers
As a singer, you are in a very special performing situation - you are, quite literally, your instrument. To give your most inspired, moving, and natural performances, your mind and body must work together as one. But if your state of mind isn't ideal for your performing situation, you may feel exposed or naked, or have negative thoughts such as "what happens if they don’t like me?", "what happens if my voice doesn’t hold up?", and of course "what happens if I forget the words?" Physical tensions can be built up as a result of these anxieties, and a harmful, viscious circle can be created It's not only about reducing performance anxiety. Giving your most amazing performances is not only about reducing performance anxiety - it's about tapping into the energy behind performance anxiety and transforming it into a positive force. By doing this, your singing on stage can be even better than your singing in the practise room - whether you’re an opera singer, musical theater artist, country & western singer, or 'American Idol' contestant. Particularly relevant for auditions and other high-pressure performance situations, the techniques described in Performing in The Zone are specifically designed to allow your body and mind to work together as one - so that you can perform to your true potential.

Reviews
"I think what you have put together in your book "Performing in The Zone" is going to be a great gift to performers in every venue. I am so happy to see that you not only tell performers what to do, but also give them the tools and skills that show them how to do it. That is rare indeed. Thank you for your contribution to the music industry"
"Gorrie has tackled head on what many in the music business consider a 'White Elephant'. 'The Zone's' strongest attribute is that it deals with a difficult and largely ignored topic in a clear, concise fashion. Recommended reading for beginners, amateurs and professionals alike."
