Yesterday, I had the pleasure of playing guitar at the "Autumn Feast Music Concert" hosted by Ann Sally!
The venue was Manpukuji Temple in Hanno City, Saitama Prefecture. It was such a beautiful venue that I felt my energy rise naturally the moment I arrived. (Haha)
As for the performance, there were many songs that were different from the genres I usually play, so it was a lot of trial and error, but I think I was able to give my best effort. That said, I also found many areas to improve, so if I get the chance to perform again, I want to play even cooler guitar!
Ann’s natural and warm voice was truly comforting to listen to, and I felt so lucky to share the same stage with her. I never imagined that I’d have the chance to play "Mother's Song," the theme song from the movie Wolf Children, which I watched as a student, together with her.
It was a day that made me want to become a better accompanist! I also discovered a lot of wonderful songs thanks to this experience, and I feel like it expanded my musical range. From here on, I’ll keep training and strive to become a more successful guitarist!
Lastly, I want to sincerely thank all the audience members who came to the "Autumn Feast Music Concert" yesterday. Playing music I love at such a fantastic venue, with incredible performers, made for an unforgettable time!!!
