My husband and I found the leaflet saying “looking for percussionists when we went to Hoshizora Music Festival in Kanazawa Park. The sentence “ Let’s do Live Performance together next March” attracted us and we decided to attend the performance, and we bought two demes, the African drum. Thanks to the instruction by teachers and other members who were younger than us, six months later, we could perform at Performing Square in March. Although It was really fun to play the djembe, it was getting difficult for us to find the time to practice since we had so many things on the table. Then we quitted after a year and half. It was the djembe which inspired me to challenge the new and start the second stage of life with my husband, who had just retired.

ジャンベ

夏、夫と一緒に金沢城公園へ星空の音楽祭を見に行き、会場でもらった各種音楽団体のチラシの中に、市民芸術村でやっているというパーカッションの団員募集を見つけました。「来年3月、一緒にLIVEをやろう！」というフレーズが気に入って説明会に行き、その場で２基のジャンベを購入。先生と年若い先輩たちの指導のかいあって、半年後の3月には無事パフォーミングスクエアでLIVE出演できました。ジャンベは楽しかったけど、やりたい事が増えたコッチの時間のやり繰りがつかなくなって、１年半で退団。定年を迎えた夫と一緒に、未知に挑戦して第二の人生をスタートする起爆剤になったジャンベです。
