Point well taken, you're absolutely right of course. It's advice I give
students constantly - 'please don't apologize for mistakes', etc - but here
when it's my own music I do the exact same thing. Humans are such silly
beasties....
I'll be working on my book report now.

I was just at an amazing week-long singing workshop in Costa Rica
(http://www.claudestein.com/naturalsinger.html), and any time anyone got up
to sing and started to apologize, Claude would assign them to write a book
report on the subject! We were taught to take big circus bows at the end of
our performances *regardless* of how we thought they went.
No apologies necessary for this video. I didn't notice any sloppiness, and
wouldn't have thought about it one bit if it weren't mentioned...
