ちなみに、どどさんちのブログでは、Night and Dayに加えて
A Happy New Yearもアップして下さったみたいです。
3月にYuming Thingsで演奏した時より、もっとシックリきてると思うので、
お時間が許すようであれば、是非!
ファイルサイズを圧縮したようなので、小さい画面ですけれども、
なんか、手のひらサイズの麻美子と徹って感じで、それもまた乙。
mini me!って感じで(笑)。
I am writing this at 8:30 PM EST on Tuesday, April 13, 2010.
However, I will end up posting as Wednesday, March 3, 2010,
the day “Yuming Things” took place.
The reason why I am “sneakingly” and “retrospectively” posting this is quite simple.
I wasn’t sure if this is good enough to do or meaningful enough to post publicly.
To be quite honest, I still am not sure!?
HOWEVER!
although I was extremely nervous on that day and have underperformed technically
compared to my jazz performances in general
(juuuuuuust being self-critical as the way all good musicians are!),
I can say that I am still proud of what I have done
and want to appreciate wonderful musicians I have worked with
To those who couldn’t make it on March 3 due to the schedule conflict
or travel distance, I have decided to put “A HAPPY NEW YEAR” from that night up on my blog.
This song ended up to be one of new addition to my repertoire
that now I regularly sing at my jazz gigs – Toru and I do this song literally throwing
in between jazz standards. I love it. (= love singing with Toru’s piano.)
As a good memory of Satoshi being in New York,
I also put “Ano Hi Ni Kaeri Tai,” and this is a duo with Satoshi on guitar.
We both made mistakes (hahaha), but I still like it.
These video clips were taken by Takashi with iPhone 3G S.
I am telling you… I was surprised by the quality of pictures.
It was videoed from the 2nd floor, mezzanine level of the theater.
It’s not that close to the stage, but it captured well – I think.
Thank you for both Takashi and Steve Job’s gangs at Apple (LoL).
