Composer Mamoru Samuragouchi held a press comference.

Last month, Japanese composer Mamoru Samuragouchi's "Ghost Writer", Niigaki held the press conference and he spoke the secret about Mamoru.

Mamoru is known as a deaf composer. People called him Japanese Beethoven. Japanese people loved him, and he is a star, because he is deaf, but still able to compose. 

Niigaki said in the conference,  "Mamoru can't compose, Play the piano, or any instruments. I have composed all the music for him for 18 years"

This shocked people, and lots of his fans were sad. 

On last friday, Mamoru himself finally spoke about it. 

His conference was different to Niigakis. 

For example, Niigaki said Mamoru is not deaf, I normally spoke on the phone.

Mamoru said It never happen, because it is impossible to him.

Niigaki said he wanted to stop this crazy happen

Mamoru said Niigaki never said that, and he demanded more money every time.

Niigaki said get only ¥7000000 in 18 years

Mamoru said sometime he gave more ¥3000000 per one piece of music.

I don't understand which one telling truth.
There is another story regarding Mamoru Samuragochi.

Miku is a Japanese girl, who was born with one hand.
She has been playing violin since she was 3.
Niigaki is one of her Accompanist.
Mamoru found out about her.
and he wanted to get fame, by using her story.
He asked Niigaki to compose a piece for her.
Mamoru of course said to the public it was him who composed it.
A few TV shows pick this story up, and made documentaries about it.
Mamoru got what he wanted.
After that, Miku's parents were angry, because they didn't want their daughter to be on TV.
Mamoru got angry at Miku's parents too for not thanking him for giving Miku a chance to be famous.
Miku's parents said "We do thank Mamoru for being kind to our daughter, but we never said we wanted to her to be on TV"
Mamoru and Miku separated since then.

I think Mamoru is lying, because everything he said is just defending himself.
I think he is a terrible person.
I feel really shock, because I liked him piece of music, and I feel like betrayed by him.

 My cousin came to my house 1 month ago with my aunt.

He is almost one year old.

Everyone in a family was very happy to see him again. He is very cute, and he is idol in my house.  However, he is very shy, and much attached to his mother so he couldn't carry on a back.

He seemed like he was intimidated by my family, especially me.

 One day, I wanted to play with him using cups. It made of plastic, so it not dangerous.

I made a tower, and then he broke that. He really liked breaking the tower.

After that, we bonded. He never cried any more, and he was happy with me.

When he was born, he stayed in my house for one month with his mom.

I think he doesn't remember my family.

When he was born, I couldn't go to the hospital, because I had a violin lesson.

A day later, I went to see him. He was really tiny, but according to the doctor he was a big baby.

He hated me in the beginning, and when he saw my face, he cried.

He was very shy, so he can't

He loves to play cup.

If I make a cup tower,

My favourite orchestra.

Taichi Miyamoto

One of my favorite orchestra is Berlin Phil. It is the short form of Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.  I love them, because they have great conductors have multinational members who are amazing musicians even as a solo player.  They tour around the world and considered the best.

One of my favorite orchestra is Berlin Phil. It is the short form of Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.  I love them, because they have great conductors have multinational members who are amazing musicians even as a solo player.  They tour around the world and considered the best. have two Japanese members, the concertmaster and a Principal Viola player.  Since 2009, The Berlin Phil has had two Japanese concertmasters. This is very rare in the world outside Japan, because European orchestra’s concertmaster usually comes from European countries. Berlin Phil is prestigious orchestra with strong historical background, and fans are all over the world. Many people think how did the Japanese players get in? Asian people still experience discrimination like this in Europe.   Berlin Phil chose Japanese concertmasters and principal viola player and this must mean they look at every player no matter of the players’ country of origin.

Daishin Kashimoto is the current concertmaster and Naoko Shimizu is the current principal viola player. Perhaps they got head hunted, because they were good, but I’m not sure.

Secondly, I like Berlin Phil for their policy of putting values on every player.  In orchestra, usually they value the sound as a whole, but Berlin Phil thinks it’s important for every player to have good skill, and then it makes a good balance and creates strong energy and dynamic on stage.

Every Berlin Phil member is a good player, so they can play in small ensemble too. That quality is of course better than other ensemble.

Berlin Phil has a great resident conductor. They are so good it makes me sick.

The conductor is really important to an orchestra, because the conductor is the leader of the orchestra, which means conductor can control motivation of the whole team. If the conductor is snobby, the orchestra never listen what he wants to do. If the conductor is too timid, usually orchestra can’t trust him.

If the conductor is too young, orchestra members may be hard to control.

So, the resident conductor of Berlin Phil is always carefully chosen and usually one of the leading conductors of the world and therefore the orchestra members trust him completely. That makes a huge difference in their music.

These are my reasons for loving Berlin Phil I hope they come to Japan again soon and I want to listen to them play live. I want to play concerto with them in the future.

my winter break in this year.

Hello everyone! How was your winter break? Is it great or bad?  Today, I would like to introduce about my winter break in this year!

Winter break was started in December 17th, I think it start faster than Japanese school.

I had three lessons on the week. It makes me always tired.

I had English lesson too. Study for Exam.

I went to Hong Kong four days, because my father will live in there.

I went to pool everyday with my young brother behind the mansion. The pool was interior, so it not cold.

Second day, we went to restaurant with my father's friend. It was very nice, many kind of food, and everything delicious. There were little bit far from mansion.

I and my young brother never went to shopping without my parents.

My parents had to buy daily necessities, so I and my younger brother were waiting in the house.

Of course I practiced violin every day, but less than usual day.

After came back to Hong Kong, I went to Yokohama to meet my paternal grandparents, and my uncle.

In there, I ate Osechi, get the Otoshidama, which is money.

I drank beer and Japanese alcohol, but I didn't’ inebriate.

In New Year’s Day, I went to Fukui January 2, because my maternal grandparents living in the Fukui was cold than Tokyo, so usually every year Fukui has a snow. However, this year doesn’t have snow. I think it problems is global warming.

My grandparents have one girl dog, she is a toy poodle, and name is Moko.

After the one day, my maternal uncle coming. They had two dogs, so they fighting with Moko every day. I ate Zoni everyday morning, and I could get Otoshidama too.

I think this year’s winter break is very nice, because homework was less than last year, and I could go many different places.

See you next time!

My Christmas this year

Hi guys! I have a really tough schedule for Christmas eve, Christmas day, and boxing day.

I have lessons eve and Christmas. I have to go Hong Kong in boxing day. I have 2 hour lesson in eve

I have a 1 hour lesson on Christmas day, It makes me and both teachers are really scary. It makes me tired.

I have to go Gotanda for eve lesson, and I have to go Suginami ku for the Christmas lesson.

I rather have Christmas dinner then do lesson.

I research traditional Christmas dinner.

In Japan, we usually eat chicken. KFC is popular in Japan.

Apparently, one Christmas a foreigner living in Japan went into KFC Aoyama branch and said "We can't get Turkey in Japan, so I will celebrate Christmas with KFC chicken." KFC sales man got inspired by this and he started a campaign to "Eat KFC on Christmas day"

However, I'm not sure this is true.

 Traditional Christmas dinner in western country is Roast Chicken or Turkey, Pigs in Blanket, Roast Potato, Brussels Sprouts, Devils on horseback.

nothing sounds appetizing, because sounds like people get fat, and name of food is horrible.

 In Iceland they eat Christmas dinner on eve 18:00. They sometimes eat Reindeer,smoked lamb.

I had no present this year, because I have no idea, and Santa Clause is never come for ever.
See you next time, and have a good new year!
