ボストン近郊のリンフィールドという町に来ています。今日はここで高校生の発表会の伴奏でございます。みんなで仲良く楽しく発表会をやっている姿は大変ほほえましいです。それにみんな上手ですね。この発表会のために、だいぶ練習してきたのでしょう。芸は身を助くと言います。若い頃にたしなんだ芸術は、大人になる上で心を豊かにしてくれるものです。私も高校の時に友達と一緒に組んでいたバンドが原点になって、ミュージシャンの道を選びました。みんな、これからも音楽をずっと楽しんでね。
I came to Lynnfield, suburb of Boston. Today's gig was accompanying high school students' recital. It was really amusing to see everyone was doing their best to make the concert fun, and let's not forget to mention, they are good musicians! I think they practiced hard for today's recital. In Japan, there is a saying "any kind of skill in art will help your life." I believe that the art which you spent time while young will let your mind grow for better. I chose to be a musician just because I had so much fun with the garage band I had in a rural town in Australia when I was seventeen. Everyone, keep having fun with music!
