2025.10.9 "Ad-lib Tasting Party" @Sauriru with Paku Yonse (piano)

The event was completed successfully.

The Improvisation Tasting Party is a casual gathering where you can learn jazz improvisation.

This time too, many people came,

Thank you very much.

This time, most of the participants were second-time or later participants,

Leaving aside the usual explanation, we started straight away with a warm-up.

And we spent a fair amount of time playing the usual games with chord changes.

At the "Ad-lib Tasting Party," after each game, everyone always comments on what they noticed.

Everyone's comments were so interesting that it seemed like there was nothing I could say.

After the last game, we realized that the "Ad-lib Tasting Party" has been going on for almost a year at Sauril.

This was revealed during each comment time, and we received heartfelt words of gratitude from everyone.

I, Okamoto Hirofumi, felt my heart warm.

"A year ago, I never imagined my life would be like this."

"I've had a lot of setbacks up until now, but I've come this far and overcome them."

These words were lined up, and before we knew it, so many positive people had gathered together.

And I felt even more moved.

Thank you very much to all the participants.

"We haven't done anything," said the Sauriru couple,

The host couple provided us with a place and welcomed us warmly.

There is no doubt that it is especially valuable to have a married couple welcome you.

Before we knew it, the "Ad-lib Tasting Party" had taken on its current form at Sauriru.

Also, the current teaching system is not suitable for students like Pak Yonsei (piano) to give precise instructions.

I believe this would not have been possible without the multifaceted collaboration with the musicians who were willing to work with us.

The belief that community and partnership are essential to music and musical creativity

A day of being stronger.

I myself came back feeling much better. Thank you very much to everyone.
