梅雨明けて、心も解放「さんぽ道」

　今日は午後になってから、お気に入りの「さんぼ道」へ足が向いてしまいました。それだけ、私には癒しが感じられるカフェです。これもフェイスブック友人「あつこさんのお陰」です。辺りに高いビルなど建物は一切なく、どこまでも広大な田畑が広がっており、このような光景は現代ではあまり見られません。

　この喫茶にはドイツ製のピアノが置いてあり、音色は優れてます。実は、4月のオープンに当たり、ピアノを設置することを提案したのはママさんのお父様とのことで、驚くと共に、なかなか現代的な方と感じます。平素、お父様はすぐ前の畑でトラックターに乗り、農業をされてる様子がしばしば見受けられます。

　今日もママさんが「ピアノをどうぞ」と言われました。しかし、他にも二人ほど客がおり、一瞬ためらいましたが、私自身も心の解放を求め、フォークダンスでお馴染みの「コロブチカ」、「マイムマイム」、「仕事の歌」、そしてピアノで弾くととても効果的な「みちのく一人旅」を弾きました。

　帰り際に2人のお客さんに挨拶したところ、こういう所での「ピアノの生演奏はいいですね。」としみじみ話され、安心しました。ピアノで歌の伴奏ではなく、歌のメロディーを弾くと意外と「悲しさや、喜び」が効果的に表現できると感じます。

Dear my friends abroad

　This afternoon, I headed to my favorite cafe, "Sambo-michi." This cafe is so relaxing to me. I owe it to my Facebook friend, Ms. Atsuko. There are no tall buildings or other structures in the vicinity, and vast fields stretch out as far as I can see. This is a sight we don't see very often these days.

　This cafe has a German-made piano, which has a great tone quality. In fact, it was the owner's father who suggested installing this piano when the cafe opened in April, which surprised me and made me think he was quite modern. Her father can often be seen farming in the field right in front of this cafe, riding the tractor.

　Today, the owner mama asked me to play the piano again. However, there were two other customers, so I hesitated for a moment, but I also wanted to free my mind, so I played the folk dances "Korobuchka," "Maim Maim," and "Work Song of Russian folksong" as well as "Northern Japan Solo Trip," which is very effective when played by the piano.

　When I leave here, I said hello to two customers. They commented that it was great to listen to live piano performance, which made me feel at ease. I thought that playing the melody by the piano, rather than accompanying the song, can surprisingly effectively express feelings of sadness or joy.
