What enriches your life?
For those searching for that answer, we want you to know. Music comforts people's hearts, sometimes encourages them, and enriches their lives.
The author made a firm decision in her first year of high school to "live with the piano."
After graduation, fully prepared, she studied abroad at one of Russia's oldest conservatories, the Saint Petersburg State Conservatory. However, it was a series of confusions due to language barriers, loneliness, and a living environment far removed from Japan. Overcoming numerous hardships, she fostered friendships, strengthened the bond between teacher and student, and dedicated herself to her lessons.
After 5 years of studying abroad, she returned to Japan and performed on many stages as a pianist based in Tokyo, doing solos and ensembles with other instruments.
Eventually, she married, became a mother, returned to her hometown, and lived a life centered on raising children. Everyday life with her children was supposed to be happy, but for some reason, her loneliness only grew. She had actually bottled up her feelings of wanting to perform.
The turning point came 7 years after she paused her activities. She began walking again toward the dream she had once almost given up on. Starting with live online performances while holding her 0-year-old baby, she gradually expanded her field of activity to the point of holding concerts all over the country.
In the music industry, even if you graduate from a music college or win prizes in competitions, only a handful of people can actually make a living as musicians. How can one continue to be active as a pianist while raising four children in such a harsh world? This is a book that will give you courage through the author's attitude of boldly challenging herself while cherishing her fans and never forgetting her gratitude to those around her.
A shy girl who came to stand alone on stage and actively perform, this is her first autobiographical essay where she speaks frankly about behind the scenes.
