After My First Recital
It was so hot this summer that I sometimes wished I could go
to the pool to really enjoy my favorite crawling.
However, I felt nervous one week before the recital, and since
then I have unusually continued practicing the piano for many
hours day by day.
The concert was full of unexpected things. I bowed my head every
time I played a piece, wondering what to do with the applause
I had received. In addition, as encore I had to play different
pieces from those I had prepared for.
Among the pieces I played as encore, “Street Corner of Vienna”
was composed by myself. I composed it based on my feeling that
Vienna was a very relaxed city when I went to Vienna.
In the future, I would like to continue traveling various places
and turn my memories into music.
I will try hard to play the piano much better and perform a better
concert next year.
