今月の末にカリフォルニアで「GITARRAGANZA」というギターフェスティバルが開催され、再び LAGQ が「SHIKI」を演奏します。 フェイスブックで主催者がそのプログラムを公開してくれました。残念ながらわたしは聴きにいくことはできませんが、参加者達の笑顔やコンサートの興奮が LAGQ の面々の表情と相まって、今から私もわくわくしてきます。それから今朝「SHIKI」を初演した Loudoun Conty の Kevin からメールがあり・・・
Hi Bill and Shingo,
I just received the most recent edition of the GFA Soundboard. What a wonderful interview. Thank you for highlighting the Loudoun County guitar programs so favorably. This was certainly a life changing event for our students and faculty. The students are still talking about their experience. Shingo became an instant rock star in the eyes of those in the orchestra and it seems that the spirit of that event is still strong with all that were involved.
Shingo, I just put together a quartet from my higher level students to play your <Rondo>. They are very excited to start learning and rehearsing it. If all goes well, they should be playing it on our November 14 concert. I'll send you a recording when is all said and done.
Thank you both for providing such an incredible and uplifting experience.
All the best,
Kevin
・・・との嬉しいメッセージ。Soundboard誌は私も入手次第、このインタビューを当サイトでご紹介したいと思っています。
