So Stormy

Standard

It seemed to Mei-Shun that 春一番=haru-ichiban, the first wind of spring roared around Kanto area yesterday. However, only Kansai was covered on this matter until last night while a weather forecast said it really was at noon today. Well, like the writer here who was named after it, springtime is so capricious that nobody can predict what and how she would do.

Day by Day

Standard

Both “Le Cygne” and ” Life Is Merry-go-round” are never easy to play. Simple scores allow no mistouch, makes Mei-Shun a bit sickened when she makes some. However, 30-minute practice on Ms. Piano every day is almost impossible, especially after horseback riding. Why won’t she make it reduced to a quarter, then? Even a minute is better than none.
