Many times, we are faced with difficult conditions when performing under pressure and one of these conditions is dry mouth. A trumpet player with dry mouth is like a fish without water. Both conditions will result in a very bad situation.
Common Causes of Dry mouth
Dry mouth is not always related to an underlying condition. It may be caused by:
- Not drinking adequate water
- Nervousness
- Stress
- Certain medications
- Aging
- Cancer therapy (radiation/chemotherapy)
- Smoking
- Methamphetamine use
- Injury or surgery
- Tobacco
- Exercising or playing in the heat
Take note of conditions 2 (nervousness) and 3 (stress). These two are generally the cause of dry mouth when performing. Performances can be stressful, especially if the performer is not fully confident of his/her solo material and preparation. In my case, I have found that being under prepared is the most often cause of dry mouth. If you know your material fully, there is no reason you should be nervous. Some may argue that they were prepared and still suffered from dry mouth. To that challenge I would ask, “were you prepared enough to play your solo in front of your best friend 10 times in a row without making any errors? This would be a simple test to see if you were prepared and I’m confident that you could not pass this test. True confidence in yourself will make all the difference as to how nervous you will be at the time of your performance. Now that my sermon is over, we will look at two possible solutions for those who still need help with dry mouth.
