Movie Review#6 [Whale Rider]

“In ancient, Paikea the brave man came from Hawaiki riding on a whale. Māori　is his descendant.” This is a legend of Māori. This is a movie about a girl of Māori and a male-dominated Māori society.

Paikea Apirana is an only granddaughter of Koro Apirana. Pikea had the same name with the traditional brave man. She was called “Pai”. Her mother and twin brother was died when she was born. Koro Apirana was the head of Māori. His son went out to German because he was grieved at the death of his wife and son. He should bring up his granddaughter with his wife. In this tribal society, it was a man only that was able to be the head of Māori and it was hereditary. Koro was not like Pai because she was a girl and she was his only descendant. But he loved Pai pure. But Pai lost heart because she was liked by her grandfather.

When Pai was 12 years old, her father came back to the hamlet. Koro hoped him to be the next head of Māori, but his son was not say “Yes”. Pai decided to go out from the hamlet with her father because she thought Koro thought distasteful for her. But she heard a voice of sea in a car on the road. She returned to her grandfather, but Koro was not changing his thinking. He thought it was sorrow that Pai was not a boy. Well, he opened the school for how to succeed the culture of Māori to only boys. He expected a boy who had character of the head appeared from the school. Pai could not attend to the school because she was a girl. But she was not give up. She learned the traditional songs, dancing, and military art” taiaha” secretly, and her uncle helped her. One day, Pai defeated with a boy who attended to the Koro’s school on a match of taiaha. Koro was angry to Pai very much what she came to the school and use taiaha.

Koro tested the boys. The test was for to be a head of Māori, boys should to pick up a rei puta the necklace of whale tooth in the sea. Koro hurled the rei puta, but the boys could not find it. Koro was sorry, and he was down with the sorrow.
Pai went to find the rei puta in the sea. But her grandmother stopped to give the rei pita to Koro, it was had by her grandmother. And, Pai wanted to get good relationship with Koro. She invited him to the school party; she thought to here her speech for her grandfather.

But, the many whales were on the shore when Pai read the speech. It is big incident. The people and Koro try to back whales to the sea, it was very difficult. When the people gave up trying so, Pai ridded on a whale. Then, the whale returned to the sea, and other whales follow with the whale which Pai ridded. In the time, Pai’s grandmother gave Koro the rei puta. Koro knew the all of things. Pai was helped uneventfully; the people cerebrated to birth of new head of Māori.

I have seen this movie 2 years ago. This movie is very good for education of different cultures understanding I think. I think we can not know about Māori without some Medias. I guess there are many male-dominated societies in the world yet like Māori. I want to go to New Zealand someday. I could enjoy watching this movie.

Book Review02-14#Anne Frank

This book is the life of Anne Frank. I guess almost people know about her in my class. She is a very famous Jew.
Anne was born 1929. She had an older sister, Margot. She was older 3 years than Anne. Her family had a terrible experience because they were Jews. In the age, there is Jew discrimination. Anne’s family was not exception. They were caught by the Nazis; they had to stay at a camp. There is very cruel surrounding. Anne and Margot killed by typhoid in the camp. Anne’s father could survive only in the family.
This historical fact is very brutality. Anne was very cute girl and popular in her school I heard. She wrote a diary, she call it “Kitty” It is the famous book “Anne’s Diary” I watched the movie of the book, and I read “Anne’ Diary” We should not do cruel discrimination like this again I think.

As a result, Tommy won the race.

The starving fox wanted a cheese whom the crow. The fox thought he will get a cheese from the crow. The fox praised the crow’s feather. The crow felt good. The fox said “Can you sing too?” The crow sang, and fell the cheese into the fox’s mouth.
I think the good talk have a bad things. And, the crow is not pretty, and it can not sing beautiful voice. It is important what we know ourselves.

Book Review02-09＃The Little Mermaid

This story is very famous in the world. I think there is nothing the sad love story expects “The little mermaid” This story was filmed often.
The little mermaid fell in love. The man was the human and the prince. He fell into the sea by a storm, she helped him. But it is not allowed love. She wished to be a human. She could be it by magic but she can not say anything. It is what she can not say “I love you” to the prince. She could not be the prince’s girl. This book’s illustration is very beautiful. I could feel I was in the sea.
I think the prince is fool. I think he should remember a girl which helped his life. I know this is the original story, but I like the same name movie of Disney. It was happy ending.

Book Review02-08#The Jumping Frog

This is the first separate volume of Mark Twain. It was published 1867. He was writer of newspaper, he wrote funny short stories for newspaper.
This book has 3 chapters. There are “The celebrated jumping frog of Calaveras County”, “curing a cold”, and “Mrs. McWilliams and the lightning”. And there are many questions about each story.
This book is shape of problem novel. I did not like this style. I read this book for uncomfortable because there are questions between story to story.

This book is history of Napoleon.
He was French, and he was born in Corsica. He was a serviceperson and politician. He was very strong man; he defeated Europe except England after evolution of France. But he could rule over Europe only for 95 days.
I think Napoleon was very grate parson. I can’t know what his life is; I guess he felt fear always. He was killed by stomach cancer, but according to another theory, he was killed by someone. I want to research his history more when I read this book. But this book is difficult for me a little.

Book Review02-06#Falk Tales from around the World 3

This book has 6 stories. There are The Bremen Town Musicians, Aladdin, The emperor’s new Clothes, Shakuntala, The Kangaroo and the Wombat, George and the Dragon in this book.
The Bremen Town Musicians was very funny story because 4 animals (donkey, dog, cat, and rooster) could not arrive at Bremen finally. And, they wanted to be musicians but they did not do music at last scene. It was written by Grimm bros.
Aladdin is one of the stories of Arabian Nights. I read and wrote a review on my blog already, I have not I should write about this story more.
The emperor’s new Clothes show abilities of self-decision I think. The king did fault because he could not decision himself.
Shakuntala is the story of India. This is like “Little mermaid” by Andersen a little. This is love story.
The Kangaroo and the Wombat is a folk story of Aborigine. This story showed because of shape of Kangaroo and Wombat. It is like Ant and grasshopper.
George and the Dragon is brave story in Roman. It is adventure of George, princess and a dragon. Finally, the dragon was killed by people. I think this story is like “Yamatano orochi” in Japan.

Book Review02-05#Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

This is very famous novel in the world. I have watched the movie in class of the history of American literatures. This novel was written by Mark Twain. He wrote the short stories for newspaper.
This story is very exciting, but I feel sad a little because of Jim. Jim is huckleberry’s friend. He is very kind and he is black person. He was in trouble because of it. There were 2 bad tricksters in the story; I like their characters because they were fool a little.
This story was written about discrimination of black people. Surely, Huckleberry, Tom, and Jim’s adventure was very fun but I can not stop to think about discrimination of black people.

Book Review02-04#Falk Tales from around the World 2

There are 5 stories, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, The White Serpent, The Ugly Duckling, and Perseus and Medusa in this book. I did not know The White Serpent still I read it.
Little Red Riding Hood is very famous fairy tale by Grimm bros. I think this story is like “a wolf and 7 young goats” In Little Red Ridding Hood, a wolf was cut his belly, and put stones into his stomach by a hunter. In A Wolf and 7 Young Goats, it is same. I think it is very unrealistic and it is very terrifying thing.
Jack and the Beanstalk is very famous too. But I don’t like this story because it is a story of pilferage. Jack was a thief only. The wife of ogre was good monster, but Jack killed her husband. Moreover, he stole many treasures. I don’t like this story.
I did not know The White Serpent before I read this book. This story was red in China. This story is strange a little. A beautiful man married with a beautiful woman. One day, a monk said “Your wife is not human. She is a monster of serpent! Try to drink alcohol your wife, you will know the fact!” A man was not believed but it was truth. The White Serpent killed her husband, but she was sad when returned to shape of woman. She went to get a mushroom of revive. There is a mushroom, but an old man stopped her. He was a god of longevity. She battled with him, she want to revive her husband. The god was moved her strong love, he allowed to take the mushroom. A man was revived by his wife. To tell the truth, she is not White Serpent. Her Obi(like a belt) was it. They had a boy, the family lived happily.
I like The Ugly Duckling. This story show “Great talents mature late” I think. But I like ducks better than swans because ducks is cute. I like to see the parade of ducks.
Perseus and Medusa is one of the Greek myths. Perseus was very bravery man. He battled with Medusa. Medusa was a monster. Perseus is very famous. His mother was caught by the bad king; He battled with monsters for his mother. I knew this story because I read a book of Greek myth when I was little child. I like the Greek myth because the stories have many dreams.

Book Review02-03#Falk Tales from around the World 1

This book has 5 stories. There are Snow White, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, Hansel and Gretel, Three Little Pigs, and Pandora’s box in this book. All of the stories are very famous in the world. I guess my classmates have read these stories at least ones.
Snow White is very romantic story. “Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who is the fairest of us all?” This word is very famous. I think this story was often acted by little children of kindergartens.
I did not know Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves till I read this book. I knew the name only. This story is a competition in ingenuity of Ali Baba and thieves. I knew the head of team is not success without wise subordinate.
I like Hansel and Gretel from when I was little child. Do you think there is dream in the house made from sugar, cookies, and cream? But, I think the father of Hansel and Gretel was very miserable. I think father should save own children from dangers.
I was become frightened when I read Three Little Pigs because this story was different with a story that I knew. In this story, 2 little pigs were killed by a wolf. I thought last scene is 3 little pigs win a wolf.
Pandora’s box is a secretly box. There are many sorrow, disease, disaster, murder, rape, war, and other terrible things in this box. Panodra was very beautiful lady. She was made by gods. There are many terrible things in the world because she opened the box.

Movie Review4#DRUMLINE

In NY, a boy graduated from high school. His name is Devon Miles. He had fantastic skill of drum, and he could get scholarship because of that. He loved his mother so much; they lived without Devon’s father through force of circumstances. His father loved music, Devon loved it too. He decided to be well at drum than his father.
Then, Devon entered A&T University. He got many friends of the marching band and a girlfriend, Laila. Devon got puffed up about drum. He believed he was the best in percussion part, and he was not serious to the unsparing practice. And Devon was a lone wolf and very irritable. He caused trouble with other university’s drum line. Dr. Lee the manager and Sean Taylor the leader of percussion part guided Devon strictly. First, Devon and Sean were on bad terms each other. Devon thought Sean was worse than him at skill of drum; Sean felt envy at Devon’s skill. Really, Devon could not read score. The thing was very big problem. He was fired from A&T Univ. marching band. But, it was Sean that helped Devon. He coached how to read score, and they thought new score for the band. It was very innovative arrange. Dr. Lee decided to use the score at next tournament of marching bands by Universities of South America. A&T University‘s rival were MB Univ. A&T University player classic music, but MB University played only famous pops for getting interest of audience. MB University’s manager believed own winning, but this year’s A&T was change by Sean and Devon. Devon could not take part in the game. But Dr. Lee and Sean asked Devon, “Take part to the final round of drum line!” After the heroic drum line, A&T University marching band was winning!

This movie is very interesting for me, because I played clarinet at marching band when I was junior high school student. I think percussion is very important position of the band. And, Devon, Laira, Sean were same years old with me. The thing was reason of I felt easy to watch too. I think the movie‘s view point were important of friendship and growing of Devon. Devon was not good boy at marching band, first. But, he could change because he could meet good manager, good leader, and good friends. A marching band is not good if there is an excellent player in the band.
I studied some important things from this movie. I want to remember this movie when I try to play with my orchestra member.

Book Review02-02#A LITTLE PRINCESS

This is very famous story in Japan because there was TV Drama of this story in Japan recently.

Finally, Sara was the princess again because her father’s friend took Sara along to his home. He has a big mine of diamond, and it was finding with Sara’s father.
It is very unbelievable story but it has a dream I think. I think girls wish for “Story like a Cinderella” at least ones. I like scene that Mr.Carrisford gave the present secretly to Sara. This scene is like a magic, I like the best.

Movie Review3#Cars

This is the movie was presented by Disney PIXER 2006. The main characters are cars. Human is not appear. The cars are personified in the movie. The story was unfolded at Route 66, Radiator Springs, America.
Lightning McQueen is a rookie of the racing. He has glittering red body, stickers of yellow zigzag line like “lightning”, and No. 95. “I am fast. I will be able to win sure” he said to him self in his trailer before starting the race. It was all what he is the No.1 for him. So, he is arrogance and a lone wolf.
The Piston Cup Dinaco 400 is very famous racing in the world. If Lightning will be a winner, it is brilliant achievement. It is unparalleled in history because he is a newcomer. Lightning had 2 rivals, King and Chick Hicks.
King is a champion of Piston Cup; he has many trophies of Piston Cup. He has light blue body; light blue is color of Dinoco. Dinoco is very famous oil company in the world, and it is the sponsor of this race. King contracts with Dinoco, the president trust him. He express he will retire with this racing. He has wife, her name is Queen. Chick Hicks has green body, his bumper’s shape is like a mustache. He can not win with King, he is second always. He wants to win in the Piston Cup, and he wish contract with Dinoco instead of King.
The Piston Cup was very exciting race. There were King, Chick Hicks, and Lightning McQueen. Lightning was top of the race. Everybody believed his winning, and Lightning was same too. He was not in his pit although his pit team advised for him. In the front of goal, Lightning’s tires broke. Finally, Lightning, King, and Chick arrived at the same time. Then, they had to take part the final round of The Piston Cup Dinaco 400 at California.
Lightning took Mack the trailer, they run and run without sleeping. He wanted to arrive sooner than King and Chick. Mack was tired very much. At the night, Mack’s door of back opened by a trouble, Lightning was dropped the freeway. Lightning had not light because he is racing car. He tried to find Mack; he could not find him, and lost the way to California. He was thrown into confusion; he run in disorder. He broke the road because he went out of control. He arrived at “Radiator Springs”. It was deserted-looking town. There was not name of the town on a map.
In the courthouse, the people of Radiator Springs were angry to him. Doc Hudson the doctor and justice said “Go out from here now!” But Sally the lawyer and owner of motel said “Do not go out still you will mend the broken road finish”. Sally persuaded Doc and other people. Doc has deep blue body and his shape is Fabulous Hudson Hornet 1951, Sally is light blue body and her shape is Porsche 911 2002. Sally is very beautiful.

First, Lightning mended the road unwillingly. He wanted to go out from Radiator Springs, he mended very sloppy. Doc was amazed at the sight of bumpy road, he said, “Let’s race with me. If you will win, you can go out without mending the road” Lightning was turn on his engine with confidence of win. But the result was loss. Lightning could not curve on the sandy place. Doc said, “You are slovenly on the race and mend the road” Lightning was very vexing.
He knew the people’s kindness; he was changing little by little. He knew what friendship is important on life. Mater the old rusty tow car was kind to Lightning especially. His dream was what takes the helicopter. He has an arch look and cute character. One night, Lightning and mater enjoyed mischief. Mater said, “We are best friends, don't you?” He was the first best friend in Lightning’s life.
One day, Sally asked Lightning to driving. She said, “You need a rest rare” The viewing from Radiator Springs was very beautiful! And, Sally was very lovely in the beautiful sight. Lightning asked her, “Why are you here? Although you are very beautiful and intelligence” He wondered she is attached the countryside although she is flowery. He thought it is good that she works in the city. She said, “Because…I fell in love with this beautiful sight” And, unnoticed Lightning loved Sally.
Really, Doc was super racer; he has many trophies of Piston Cup. Doc was famous racer in the world in the old time. Lightning knew the thing by chance. He wanted to teach how to race well. “You can run fast yet because you have many trophies of Piston Cup!” “Such things are mere ornaments” But Doc refused to take part in racing. Because he was retire by the cruel accident in the racing. Somehow he was cured, but he could not return to racing because there are new racers already. Doc tried to dislike racing because he want to forget the sad memory. It is reason he was prejudiced to Lightning. He did not see Lightning the racing car.
One morning, the road of Radiator Springs was mended finish. Luigi the Fiat500 and Guido the fork lift give tires to him. Ramone the Chevrolet Impala painted beautiful his body for racing. Lightning thought he want to give a reward to people of Radiator Springs. In the night, he was decorated the town with neon, it was like old time. Then, many reporters and cameramen came to Radiator Springs. “Are you McQueen!? Why are you here!!” Mac came to meet Lightning. “I’m sorry McQueen, let’s go to California!!”
In the stadium, there were many people to see the race. “I am fast. I will be able to win sure…..” Lightning tried to concentrate to the racing but he thought about Sally and Radiator Springs people. And, Lightning had not pit team. The racer can not win without trustful pit team. “McQueen!” There were people of Radiator Springs in the pit. There was Doc too, and he gave advice through the microphone. Chick’s pit team laughed to McQueen’s pit team because there was only fork lift, Guido. But Guido changed McQueen’s tires very fast. It was fastest in other pit team.
In front of goal, Lightning was top. Then, King was in accident, he could not move. Lightning went to help King. Chick was winning. “…Why you did not goal?” King said so. Lightning was smile, “My trustful racer said, such thing is mere ornament”

This is very exciting movie. There were many famous people in the movie. Mater is Tomomitsu Yamaguchi and Luigi is Panzetta Girolamo. Their voices are very comical. I think the producer and movie creators were very persevere. The characters are elaborate designs I think.
We can learn importance of friendship when watch the movie.

After that, all things were same with before the day’s things. “It is unbelievable…What happen for me now!?” The phenomenon was continuing everyday. No, it was not everyday, it was every Feb.2, Groundhog Day.
Phil went mad day by day. The tomorrow was not coming to Phil. If he was arrest by a police because he run wild by a car or 0he run away with a money bag of bank… he was in the bed at 06:00am and the radio in Phil’s room said, “Good morning! It is cold today too……I want to move to Miami, ha-ha.......Today is Groundhog Day!!” It is same when he committed suicide. Everyday was boredom for him. He started to listen and help to people for killing time. Someday, Phil became a good man from haughtiness man.
One day, no, “one groundhog day”, Phil think out to make advances to Rita. Phil employed every means to win Rita's heart because he can try any number of times. But she was not said “yes”. She slapped Phil on the cheek. First, Phil thought he want persuade Rita to sleep with him, it is good only that. But Phil felled in love pure for he know about Rita well. Phil had not pure heart when he arrived at Punxsutawney. And, he wanted to understand about him, he did not try to understand about other people. Maybe Rita did not receive him, because she felt it.
Finally, when Phil tried to understand about Rita really, she received him. And in the morning, the radio said the different things with the morning of Groundhog Day.

I knew this movie’s Japanese title from old time, but I watched this first time. I like the scene which Phil took the offensive and he did unreasonable. It is so comical and funny! Then, first, I thought this movie is comedy. But when I watched the story of middle, I felt sad a little. If I will become like Phil when I will get up tomorrow, what do I do? I thought so, I got frightened a little. I think Rita is a very virtuous woman. Why did she understand the difference of Phil although she can not compare yesterday’s Phil and today’s him? She is very intelligent if she can decision men’s good or bad on a day. I should learn after Rita.
I like side characters too. Everyone has characteristic looks and atmosphere. I like Ned Ryerson especially. He is very characteristic. I guess my stress will build up if I will be taken by him everyday because he is very noisy and persistent. Well, he is guileless because he has cute looks. Ned Ryerson is Stephen Tobolowsky. He appear on “The Time Traveler's Wife”, he is a doctor in the film. This movie will be released Oct.24 2009. Why don’t you watch the movie?

Movie Review#1 [Mr. Incredible]

First, this movie was made by PIXAR of Disney 2004. This is 6th movie of PIXAR; all of their movies are made by computer graphics.

Main characters are Bob, Helen, Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack. They are Parr family the super heroes and heroines
-Bob is “Mr. Incredible” He is the head of Parr family. He has very strong body and power. He has strong mind of justice.
-Helen is “Elastigirl” She has flexible body and she can expend her body. She is Bob’s wife, she loves him so much.
-Violet is only daughter of Parr family. She can vanish herself and make barrier around her. She is very shy and she has no confidence.
-Dash is older son of Bob and Helen. He can run very fast. He can run on the water because he is fast too much.
-Jack-Jack is younger son of Bob and Helen. His ability is mystery because he is little boy yet.




“Mr. Incredible” is a story of this STRANGE family.

In old time, there were many super heroes and heroines in this world. Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl had super power; they were super hero and heroine.
Mr. Includible was asked a little boy,”I want to be your partner because I am grate fan!” But Mr. Incredible was in an important mission, he was hard on the boy.
Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl fell in love, and married.
The government ordered to live wearing a mask because there were many lawsuits cause of them. And now, super heroes don’t show their selves to the world…

Now, Bob the insurer helped an old woman. She was in trouble about her insurance, He advised to her how to get the insurance easily. He can not leave a person in some trouble because he is a one-time super hero. But the insurance company is trade too same with other companies. Bob’s customers can get the insurances easily; it is bad for the company on the management. His Boss said “It is not our customers should you save. You must save the company only!” Bob could not be patient, he punched his boss. Bob was fired cause of the force to his boss. He could not say to his wife this fact. And, he hated this NORMARY life. He wanted return the position of super hero. He patrolled occasionally night to save people from danger with Frozone. He was super hero too. Frozone can control ice.
One day, Bob found a letter is his room when cleaned his briefcase. He had not had the slightest about it. It was digital letter; the sender was Mirage. She induced him into the world of super heroes again. She said “Do you want to be a super hero again? If you cooperate with our project, you can be it and we secure your high salary.” Bob wants to be a super hero again like 15 years ago. He could not decide in an instant, he took on the job secretly to his family. There was his mind of guilty what he fired from his company.
Mr. Incredible asked his old friend to make a suit because his suit is old. She is Edna Mode. She is a famous designer; she likes to make clothes for super heroes the best.
Mirage assigns him to a task. He must battle with a very wise battle robot. The robot was very atrocity. It gave Bob a lot of trouble but Bob could break the robot. But it is an experiment to make a stronger robot than Mr. Incredible. He was caught by Mirage’s boss. The name of Mirage’s boss is Syndrome. He was a great fan of Mr. Incredible 15 years ago. So, Mr. Incredible was hard on Syndrome when he was a boy. He want to revenge to Mr. Incredible.
At that time, Helen was worried to her husband. She went to Edna Mode, she suspect Bob having an affair with someone. Edna scolded to Helen, and she said, “Fight to vice with your husband!” Edna made Helen’s hero suit sure, there are clothes for her children.
Helen decided to go to help Bob. She piloted a plane. Violet and Dash followed with their mother secretly. Helen did not want to put her children in danger in really, Helen decided to allow Violet and Dash. And she said, “Use your super power to the best of your ability to save yourself!” First, Violet was bewildered to use her super power because she was forbidden to use her power by Helen. And, she could not have self-confidence. Dash was very happy to be able to use his super power because he was control his power him self. It was stress for him.
Helen, Violet, and Dash could arrive at a room somehow. There was Bob in the room; he was caught by a man. His name is Syndrome. He has said to him so,”I want to be your partner because I am grate fan!” 15 years ago. So, the enemy of Mr. Incredible family is a boy who was despise by Bob 15 years ago. Syndrome has a grudge against Mr. Incredible from that time. He wants to be a stronger super hero than Mr. Incredible. He makes and improves a very wise battle robot. He plots he set the robot loose in the big city and he will break the robot himself at that moment, Syndrome will be super hero surpassed Mr. Incredible.
Incredible family tries to stop Syndrome but at last, the robot was set the robot loose in the big city by Syndrome. Frozone came to family to help. It was a terrific battle. At length, Mr. Incredible family and Frozone was success to break the robot.
It is all settled! …It is not so. They came back to home, there was Syndrome! He holds Jack-Jack in his arms. Family was shocked, but Jack-Jack is a child of super heroes too. He defeated Syndrome and he came back to his mom himself.
Here, it is all settled really.

It is very exciting story. I like the movie’s music too. It is a little aged music; I think it is like “007”, music of 1960’. And, I am impressed with the progress of Computer Graphics techniques.
I like Dash! He is very cute. I can feel exhilarating when I see his very speedy moving. The character’s moving is very comical, funny, and real. I was laugh when I watched the movie at the library alone. But, it is not only funny scene. There is the love of family in the story. It is very important things but it is forgotten at ordinary life. I think this movie’s highlight is the love of family. I watched the movie at the first time, and I don’t watch a cartoon ordinary, but I like this movie.

This is digression, I here; there is Woody of Toy Story in the movie. It is unique rumor. I think it is enjoyable to watch the movie again while looking for him next.

Orchestra!

I like music very much! I like more playing than listening. I belong to the orchestra club. I will write about the orchestra.

First, I will write about orchestra. It is most famous genre of music in the world I think. The orchestra is played by many music players on leading of a conductor. The big orchestra is called “symphony orchestra” and little orchestra is called “chamber orchestra” There are many shape of playing.
The origin of orchestra was the stage of Greek’s traditional dance and singing. We can classify some orchestra organization groups. There are factions of classical, Romantic, or baroque and so on. There are differences of scale. There is a concert master or mistress in an orchestra. It is a top player of 1st violin part, they are best at musical skill in the orchestra. There is each top player in each part, and the feeling of identification with a conductor was taken by a concert master or mistress, and top players. Recently, Nodame Cantabile was released in Japan. This is drama about music student’s life. They play the orchestra music in drama and movie. I think the orchestra can be famous in Japan because there was this drama.

Our orchestra is no9t good at musical skills. But I want to play with us, and I like my friends. I think we should need the best friendship on playing music. Sure, we play a solo when play an ensemble. I want to remember our feeling of identification at the time. Well, there is no part of solo in contrabass part almost.

My 2 friends have been taken the flu. They could not go out for 1 week. I guess the flu is going around more and more from now on. Let’s wash and disinfect your hands!

Law of organ transplants

13. July.2009, a proposal to revise for the revision of “organ transplants” was formed in Japanese national assembly. I do not think about law ordinary, but I try to think about this bill. The definition was changed; children’s internal organs offer is able to do if there is bereaved family’s mind.

What do you think about human’s “death”? Why people are able to recognize about it? What is “death”? I think so. This is a bill what the brain death is “death” and we can recognize the organ transplant a brain dead person to patient needs some internal organs. What are a dead person and bereaved family’s minds?

We can do organ transplants for children without making a voyage to overseas.
I want to tell you again, “What do you think about this bill?”

I think this is good bill for patients. But I don’t think there is a consideration to bereaved family. The family needs much time for they can receive the death of child fundamentally. I guess the parents want to leave their child’s proof. But an organ transplant is had to do without a moment's delay. The donor’s parents can’t have time for they can receive the death of their child.

But I think it is very important bill. The death is concerned in the law deeply. We must think about it deeply someday of during we live.
Where do you think border line of the Human’s death?

When I will be not able to move?
When I will be not able to recognize to my parent’s?
When you will be in the situation, what will you think?
No, you will be not able to think so if you will be in the situation.

I hope the progress of medical science. I can think so only.

I thought about it deeply when I saw this news at the internet.

Book Review#14 [Florence Nightingale]

This book is written about a woman like an angel. It is real story historically. I was interested in her history; I researched about her a little by internet after reading.

Florence was born 1820, England. Her home was rich; Florence was not having inconvenience in her life. She was very kind-hearted.
At the time, the nurse is very dirty work among the society. She thought “The nurse is a holy work” but it is not received the people around her.

I moved her life very much. She was very kind, but I think I can not say in a word of “kind”. There is this saying “an attempt to discover new things by studying the past through scrutiny of the old” I think we must study about history; there is hints for we can live well certainly.

My favorite

I think I will write about my best favorite through my campus life.

Do you know the contrabass? It is a sorting of pitch extent. “Contrabass” is under “Bass” Then, it is the lowest register.
I play the contrabass in the KGU orchestra club. I will write about CONTRABASS the musical instrument today.
It is the biggest stringed instrument in the orchestra. I guess you understand the size very well if you look at this picture which the contrabass with the cello. It has many names. There are “double bass”, “bass”, “wood bass”, and “upright bass” and so on. It has 4 or 5 strings, these each string’s open notes are G, D, A, E, and C when you see the contrabass from front of it. We play the musical scales how to push these strings by player’s left hand’s fingers.
I play the contrabass which has 4 strings and the size is about 180 cm. It is 3/4 of full size. This is most popular type in Japan.
When we play the contrabass we need a bow. There are the 2 kinds of bows, French-bow and German-bow. I use German-bow, because it is easy to exert pressure to strings for me. There are many users of German-bow among the contrabass players. I know a French-bow user in Kumamoto only one. There is the difference of 2 bows. It is the shape of grip. The German-bow is got ready like tuck up in right hand. In the other, French-bow is got ready like pick grip up with player’s right fingers.

Please look at this picture. The contrabass is got ready like this. I think it is like the figure holding 2 people when I looked at this first. It is very quiet and simple sound. If I compare with the violin’s brilliant sound, I think the violin is the king; the contrabass is the big castle. Then, I think the orchestra is not made up without the contrabass.

I like the contrabass but I did not like it first. I played the clarinet when I was a junior high school student. But, I was not like the clarinet; I want to play the flute very much really. It is same when I entered KGU orchestra club too. I wanted to play the flute but there were many people in the flute part at the time. I thought I compromised the oboe or the faggot. I was like wood-wind’s sound. Then, I was recommended the contrabass. The contrabass part was not having many players. The senior student needed me.
Now, I thank the senior student very much! I could meet the contrabass; I could enjoy playing the music. I like contrabass the best among the instruments of an orchestra.

Why don’t you think deeply about your favorite? I guess you can see your new surface.

Book Review# 13 [Pinocchio]

It is very famous story in the world. Pinocchio is a movable puppet without control! He made from a piece of wood whose it is able to talk.This story is Pinocchio the puppet's adventure story.

It is very warm story I think. At last, Pinocchio could be a real boy. It is like "AI" the movie. "AI" is the story of the pet robot which has a mechanical brain.

I thought his dad swallowed by whale but this book was written it is shark.
I wonder is there the shark possible swallow the man. If there is that big shark, I am frightened.

Book Review#12 [Stories of Dolls]

This book is like "The stories of Snowmen" Many cute dolls can move when people don't see them.

The book has 3 stories about active dolls. They are all girls.

I think there is a hope from adults for children. It is what we must handle anything carefully because its have own spirits. If children think so, they will handle anything carefully.

I think this book is good for reading for little children.

Book Review#11 [The speech of John Fitzgerald Kennedy]

This is the book about John Fitzgerald Kennedy the 35th president of America's speech. I major a seminar of "Speech English" last year. I studied about Bill Bradley's speech and I wrote a English essay about it. It has the original English text and the text translated to Japanese.

The speech is very difficult because it needs the audience's concentration and approval. I think a good leader must be a good speaker.

It is difficult to me, I stopped reading half and I will try to read deeply from now I think.
