My second CD
I've been taking a long time to finish my second CD, but at last the goal is in sight.
I recorded three kinds of music:
A duo with Matt Wilson, some of my original songs, and a collaboration with a painter, Isao.
When I finished mastering them, I thought of making an album with two disks, but in the end, I decided to make three separate CDs.
I've been trying to put some of them together in several way, but none of the choices made enough sense.
In the end I found that I should separate them, and make each of their colors clear.
I put each piece of music on a different CD, and yet cut off some weaker parts, and I ended up with three CDs which were simple and complete.
I wonder why I didn't realize such an easy thing, but until I reached out to get the essence of each kind of music, I couldn't get them into shape, I think.
I sent the CDs to each of the designers who I asked to make a cover jacket.
I'm looking forward to releasing them next year.

the final scent it behind
5th(Tue) concert with " Miranda" at Grapefruit Moon
8th( Fri) rehearsal with " Kanarie"
10th( Sun) rehearsal with "Ahup-yan"
I let my "Silk Jasmin" bathed in sunlight with the other plants.
One day I happened to look at her and I saw that the white points on her stalk started moving, and finally became a leaf about 3mm long.
It was amazing!! but the leaf was white and stiff...why?
The next day, my "Silk Jasmin" had died.
I'd been watching her every day, so I could notice any change in her condition from her color.
When I saw her later in the afternoon, I found that the green part which was left on the stalk had turned brown as if it was dead.
I thought I should give up on trying to save her.
In the end, I had her in the water, then her smell which had become familiar to me came out lightly like the final scent it behind.
In the evening, I cut off the stalk with the little white leaf which I saw being born, and I returned her to the earth.
I've finished reading a mystery book.
It's his first work, and it was very interesting!!
One thing which made an impression on me was a quote from Lao Tsu:
The thing which a caterpillar calls the end of the world is called a butterfly by the rest of the world around him.
