Something else that can contribute to hitting wrong notes is inconsistent fingering when playing. You should be using the same fingering every time to play a piece, assuming the fingering you've chosen is efficient.

However, there are things that can help. I can only speak for myself, and my own experience, but I find that recording myself playing helps, because then I will feel like, now I MUST NOT play wrong. Of course that is when I begin to make mistakes. However, after a while this feeling will subside because you get used to the recorder "listening" to you, and at least for me, I find that I make less mistakes. I think the major cause for this nervousness of playing in front of people is created in our minds. In other words, I believe it is not so much a question of building technique (although that is important too) but rather learning to be in the right state of mind. We (beginners) often believe that people are watching or listening to see if we make mistakes, and that if they hear a mistake they will make fun of it. But in reality I think most people listen because they enjoy listening to someone who can play the piano. How often do you not hear "Oh, I wish I could play the piano like that". I hear it often anyway, even though I am a beginner and certainly not very good. To give you an idea of my skill level, I am currently learning Watermark by Enya. The key is to relax and enjoy playing the piano, even when someone is listening. Relax and focus on not speeding away to finish the song as quickly as possible. If you begin to speed up the tempo it is of course much easier to make a mistake. Also I have found that for some reason when people are listening, I kind of begin to play using sloppy technique. It is like I sometimes consider myself so poor a player that I believe others will think it is strange if I actually played well. It sounds stupid, and I know this thought is only in my head, but still this happens to me sometimes. I think if you imagine that you are a better pianist than you are, and enjoy hitting the keys and try to sort of connect with the piano, feeling the music emerge for every key you hit, the anxiety for making mistakes might lessen, simply because you may realize that you actually play very well. It works for me, when I am actually able to do it. As a final note ... and to put it a little Yoda-ish: To play well, the music you must become. Listen not, but feeeeel the music flow through you. Interestingly, many expert pianists seem to not care at all if they hit the wrong note. I don't know if this was of much help, but it is how I feel about it anyway.

The show from the society how they blend in their cultures with Maori in 19th Century. Interesting theory somehow. It was the shame how much they have learned in their education culture values. Number one sex are involved anywhere. They are very open minds. United States are very closed minds. I have been to other countries and I have aware with their sexuality tastes. I don't mind to see this but not for any kids who have no educations values. I have seen Maoir's cultures and church performances children involved in the shows. There are no differences. I want to add other thing, I am hard of hearing and know many sign language. They use New Zealand sign language I have aware. In New Zealand, the mute piano lady from Scottish came to their country and does not know New Zealand sign language? British and New Zealand are very similar but the only differences is lexicons. New Zealand sign language was invented by Maori deaf people in New Zealand. I have wondered how that mute lady have learned her signing so fluently when she came to the country married to that man (Neill). She could have taught him. Its a very unusual scenes. As for violence that can happen anywhere. The kids can learn their lessons if they see one. If they have not seen one they may harm themselves. If you travel in back-country like in New Zealand be prepared with the tribes. Good luck with them.
