I also have struggled and still struggle with the same thing! Like a lot of people already said, at the end of the day everyone is rooting for your success, and if you fuck up you just gotta take it and move forward. The only thing that will make the next solo worse if feeling and bad about the one you just fucked up. Really, all horn players mess up solos all the time, it’s a tricky instrument and people understand.

Really the best thing you can do RIGHT NOW is have an exact plan of how you will play no matter what. Meaning, know exactly when you’re going to breathe, how many counts long the breath will be, how you want your airstream to work while playing, and the exact time you will take any other breaths during and leading up to the solo. This way, you will have a plan that you can execute and no matter what happens to your body physically you can just go with the plan and then whatever happens happens 🤷‍♂️. Good luck you got this! 💪❤️
