It's a nice and calm Sunday.
Yesterday, while I was at work, there was thunder, but I was so focused on my work that I absent-mindedly thought
they were doing demolition work on the building next door. After work, I headed home.
Today is the monthly concert of the N Symphony Orchestra. In Shibuya Yoyogi Park, it seems there's a Balkan and Caucasus Festival being prepared.
The concert today, fitting for the new year, features a special on ballet music, which I particularly enjoy.
I love the beauty and dynamism of human bodies in ballet, so I'm really excited about today's program.
The ballet music of Bizet's "Carmen Suite", Ravel's suite, and his ballet music as well.
All seem like they will be pleasant to listen to.
I usually say that the act of participating is what matters, but today, I feel differently.
Ah, I've started to wish I could also watch ballet dancers perform.
Lately, I've been drifting away from watching ballet. The thought that I might never see the explosive performances of Rudolf Nureyev again has kept me away from ballet.
But there must be many dancers who have followed in his footsteps, so maybe I should continue to enjoy ballet.
