Today I visited Ayumi’s house.
She is a recorder player and teach it in an international school.
She also organize a concert in a church.
I accidentally met Marten, Ayumi’s fiend there.
He is a pianist and come to go throw a rehearsals with Ayumi
for the next concert on 19th April in the church.
They played Bach with a cembalo and recorder, it was just amazing.
Kids are very happy to grow up in her music.
He talked about when he played organ with choir from Ghana.
“When I finished playing, I was asked ‘Are you from Ghana?’ ”
He say with laughing.
“At first they were not very friendly, but once I played a organ,
We got to be friends quickly,
Music has no borders”
“Same flower” I said it.
Ayumi send me a message at the night.
“I believe that I can sweep away borders between age or culture or position
with this small recorder
It will be beautiful if we can share the same happiness simply with art ”
They invited me to arrange flowers on the next concert!
We Japanese has created a lot of rules for flower in ikebana.
There is no meaning to explain the rule to the world ,
But I also believe it can sweep away borders
that we have confirmed what is beautiful again and again in the long history.
