＊Although it had long light rains from a few days ago, it cleared up from early morning today. We enjoyed a very comfortable day. I went to the Adult Disease Study Laboratory in Shinjuku in early morning by taking trains. At first, I wished to drive the Prius up there but in order to compensate the lack of exercises, I finally chose the trains. When I got down to the Gyoran-Sakashita cross on my way to the Shirokane-Takanawa subway station, a commercial van was rolled over at the center of road cross. It had a big dent on the center of side panel. A truck parked at road side with the crashed front. No passenger of van was found around there. I guessed all of them have been brought away by ambulance. It seemed to be a typical accident at road cross. If I drove my car, I might have been involved with the incident, I was horrified.

I came back to my home before 10:00 and made efforts to recover the delay of diary. But the V1, a small-sized note PC, was so inefficient that I could not get any good result.
| ＊It was the first concert for me played by NHK Symphony Orchestra after I changed to a subscriber of B program from C program (the day of concert was changed to Wednesday from Friday, the place of concert was changed to Suntory Hall from NHK Hall.) The new seat is located to a bit right of stage. That is the only point which I cannot satisfy with. But I can overlook the whole stage at a glance (at least for a coming year, I have to listen their music from here. ) When they are playing, a big lump of sounds is floating over from the center of guest seats on the first floor to the front of stage. |
The sounds from metal wind instruments located on the right stage, especially low pitched sounds, are reflected back from the left seats on the second floor.I enjoyed better sounds at a new seat in Suntory hall than in NHK hall. I am satisfied with the change of seat, as far as the quality of sounds is concerned. |

＊It was the first time for me to listen Ms. Sayaka Shoji, a violin solo, and also the violin concert No. 1 a minor op. 77 composed by Dmitry Shostakovich. Ms. Shoji has made efforts to master how to play the middle and east European music. Although Shostakovich composed this difficult music just for testing the capacity of violinists, she played it patiently as well as bravely. After she finished the music, she came out on the stage to vow down to the audience more than five times replying the applause. I was impressed very much. |
