At the end of summer, parents and children play classical music ♪ @ Ginza Blossom Central Hall
This is Edamame, a correspondent with children.♪
Saturday, August 27 at Ginza Brosam Central Hall
"Summer vacation event familiar with classical music" was held.
I wrote an article about the event announcement in late July.

Call the application on the first day of reception (I want to praise myself that I haven't forgotten)
On the day, I visited the venue with my daughter Azuki (1st year of municipal elementary school)! !
The venue is not the usual hall, but the banquet hall "Margaret" on the 7th floor.
"Ginza Blossom", where weddings are also held.
Actually, this is the first time I have visited this floor!
The members of the Chuo-ku Symphony Orchestra will perform.
It consists of a woodwind quintet (flute, oboe, clarinet, fagothorn) and a piano.
First of all, it starts with the performance of the song "Demon's blade" and the introduction of each instrument!
Everyone experience the conductor!
And we all had a little longer chopsticks.
I tried "conductor experience".
Because they play according to the conductor's tact.
With its moving speed ... the tempo of the song is free! That's why.
※It's amazing that you're playing closely with it! I think so.
That's because the tempo had changed so much.
And there was actually an opportunity for the children to stand in front of the performer and shake the conductor!
Everyone is good! !
I have to conduct and keep my hands moving at a certain tempo.
Surprisingly, my arms should be tired.
Applause the children who waved exactly until the end!
Quiz is also very interesting♪
There was also a quiz corner on musical instruments and classical music.
The most interesting thing was
"When you smoke helium gas, your voice becomes louder.
Then, what happens to the sound when I suck helium gas and blow wind instruments?
1: No sound 2: No change 3: The sound is high."
That's the problem.
・・・ I had never heard "the voice of a person who smoked helium gas and raised his voice."
I think it was already interesting at that point.
(The demonstration was also performed by the leader of the Chuo-ku Symphony Orchestra, who is also a horn player.)
How do you think this answer will be? ?
The recorder demonstrated what would happen at the venue.
・・No, it was interesting! !
When you tell me the reason, "Yes, that's right. It's true." That's why.
If you actually do it, you're satisfied! I did it.
"Peter and Wolf" with a costume♪
The last song is "Peter and Wolf."
A work by Russian composer Prokofiev, created as a "symphonic story for children."
I think it's rare to have a music work with narration.
Originally a work for orchestras, it is arranged for this woodwind quintet.
Musical instruments represent each character...
Piano → Peter (the protagonist)
Flute → Bird
Oboe → Duck
Clarinet → Cat
Fagot → Peter's grandfather
Horn → Wolf
It's a coincidence.
It means that you can also see who appears in the scene because of which musical instruments are playing.
(By the way, this time ... with "masquerade" of the performers ...)
And since the narration explains "this kind of scene now"
You can listen to music like following the story.
That's why I think it was a performance that even beginners of classical music could enjoy and listen.
For ordinary concerts, "stage" and " audience seats"
You may feel like there is a gap.
If you play so close as you did this time
Do you feel more familiar with music? I think so.
I hope there will be such a meeting again!
