Pros and cons of playing by memory

Musicians may often play an instrument with sheet music in front of them, but others can prefer to simply memorise a certain piece.

This can have a number of advantages, such as allowing you to be a spontaneous player who can produce a tune at any moment.

And by not having your eyes focused on a piece of paper, you can pay closer attention to your playing technique.

This could go a long way towards improving your ability and refining your playing style.

However, some find sheet music a great way of filtering out any distractions, so this could aid concentration and improve your playing in a different way.

Others may be nervous at the prospect of performing, as they fear their minds will go blank when they take to the stage.

So a music sheet can be a good safety net, allowing the player to produce a confident and assured performance.

If a musician asks whether or not they should use a music sheet or play by memory, there is no correct answer.

Everyone is different and it simply depends on what you think works best for you.
