Naoko Maeda - Concert Pianist

I couldn't move for a while because their sounds were amazing!
And Lucia Micarelli was so beautiful!

Trumpeter Chris Botti and "rock star" violinist Lucia Micarelli perform the moving "Emmanuel".

I worried about my music last week.
I wondered if I could step forward, whether I could simply enjoy music as I had been when I was small.

I have some best friends who I can talk to anything.
One of them is a singer.
After she listened my worrisome, she gave me her idea what she was thinking when she did music:

"Seeking for a sound which I will be impressed, I will be moved by."
"I use time for it."

That was the thing what I was forgetting recently.
My teacher would say to me that being a pianist who plays beautiful sounds with the person's own sounds and music.
She taught me how to use arms softly, how to arms, hands and whole body be free etc..
Pianist doesn't play only with his or her fingers.
I would make a story and imagine as I was performing a piece and entertained myself.

Because I was under the pressure being a concert pianist, I was forgetting basic things as a person who does music.

Yes, I can take much time for create my music.
Yes, I can play pieces which I simply love from bottom of my heart.
Be free!

Monday was Columbus day.
Our first girl turned 5 years last Friday and we celebrated her birthday till Monday.
We had a special weekend.

However it was not a good idea that I took a off Monday when my office was opening, and my boss got angry at me.
She called me Monday and I felt terrible.

The next day Tuesday, I worked at my office, teaching students.
After my work I talked to my boss and apologized to my fault.
She just said "Stop feeling bad" then she opened her arms and hugged me.

I got tears.
My boss is Ms. Nevilla Ottley.
She is amazing.

Play for two hours for "Moonlight On The Water River Cruise" on October 1st.

I am thinking to play some jazz pieces, some by black composers,
all etude pieces by Chopin etc..
Hope inside of a yacht is not cold.
I love my fingers feel warm!

*If you would say that you are a concert pianist, you won't make a mistake when you have a performance, will you?
*If you are a concert pianist, you will be able to read music perfectly, because every note on a music book is a word by a composer, won't you?
*If you are a concert pianist, you will be able to acquire new music within short term and have no excuse after a performance, won't you?

I would say "No"to every question.

I make mistakes whenever I play a piece.
I misread music and notice it after a performance.
I want to make a excuse after a performance.

Could I say that I am a pianist?
I wonder.
