高齢者に大切・・・体操と歌

　今日、私には楽しみがあります。何だと思いますか。それは、午後、私の家の前の上四集会所「ふるさと」で行われる「あんしんセンター倉賀野」主催の「体操」と「前奏を聴いて曲を当てるクイズと、その歌を全員で歌う」ピアノ伴奏の役割が私にあるからです。ですから、前奏も正しく効果的に弾く必要があります。

　ピアノ伴奏で「全員で歌う」と、カラオケとは一味違う、そこにいる仲間との一体感が生じ、皆さんとても幸せそうな表情になります。曲は昔から誰でも知ってる歌です。仲間の中には普段、コーラスをしてる女性もいて自然と二部合唱になるので響きも本格的です。私としては、歌いやすい高さの調性で弾く必要があります。一応、何調でもOKです。

　私たちは人間に生まれたことで、幸せにも音楽を楽しむ世界があります。昔から歌い継がれてきた音楽文化である世界の歌、日本の歌には素晴らしい曲がたくさんあります。もし私のピアノ伴奏で好きな歌を思い切り歌いたくなったら、ぜひ、私の家においでください。もちろん、歌を歌った後は懇親会をしましょう。

Dear my friends who are crazy about singing songs and listening to great music.

　The simultaneous interpretation into English for your understanding will be done after my breakfast in Japan time.

　I have something a pleasure today. Please guess what it is? It's because I play the piano accompaniment for the "Anshin Center Kuragano" quiz, which will be held in the afternoon at the Kami-4th Community Center named "Furusato" in front of my garden, where everyone will sing after the introductory quiz. Therefore, I need to play the intro correctly and effectively.

　

　Singing together with piano accompaniment creates a sense of unity with the friends there, which is a little different from karaoke, and everyone looks very happy. The song is one that everyone has known for a long time. I'll keep it a secret, but I'll let all my Facebook friends know.

　This opportunity is already the third time today. The first song today is "Yuki no Furu Machi o" to blow away the heat, followed by "Gakusei Jidai" and "Tsuki no Sabaku". Some of the friends are ladies who usually sing in the chorus, so it naturally becomes a two-part chorus, and the sound is also professional. For me, I need to play in a key that is easy for everyone to sing. In any key, it's fine.

　We are blessed to be born as humans and live in a world where we can enjoy music. There are many wonderful songs from around the world and Japan, which are part of the musical culture that has been passed down since ancient times. If you want to sing your favorite song by my piano accompaniment, please visit my home. Of course, shall we have a pleasant party after singing?
