For you band geeks... I have a lot of solos in my band class this year. And whenever I play, my face turns bright red, no matter how high the note. So If I have a solo, all the attention will be on my red face!! Does anyone know how I can just relax when I'm playing?????

What instrument do you play?
It happens to people. You can't help it.
If it bothers you a great deal, try wearing a powder foundation (or liquid) to cover up.
My face used to get red randomly and now my skin looks all 'neutral' ]
Its all in your breathing, depends on what you play also. I've played the clarinet in band for a good 10 years and my face would only get red if I was playing the highest of the notes or the lowest because they require the most air, but my friend's face would turn bright red all the time and she'd have this massive vein in her forehead that would pop out when she played. So I think it depends on the person, although it would have helped to know which instrument you play. With woodwinds it could depend on the size of your reed, higher number requires more air therefor, it could result in your face getting redder than it might if you were playing on a lower number reed.
Just remember that anyone who appreciates the music you're playing won't be paying that much attention to your face. ]
