日本なら台所に蟻が一匹いるだけで大変だ！ となるのに、バリでは床を蟻が這い回ってても平気....というか平気ではないけどまあしょうがないや、と箒で掃き出しておしまい。そんなこと言ってたらバリにはいられないからね。人間の適応能力ってすごいよね。

それにしても、トランプの就任式とマーティン・ルーサー・キング・デーが同じ日だというのはこれ以上ない歴史の皮肉だよねえ。

今年も合唱団の演奏会の季節。今年はホールが取れず、火曜日の夜、豊洲シビックセンターホールにて、Charpentier と Kraus と Mozart のミサを歌います。

コロナ禍ですっかり少人数になってしまった合唱団、オケバックでの大曲を歌えないのは残念だけど、小ぶりの秀作を歌うのはそれはそれで楽しいです。

Singing mass by Charpentier, Kraus and Mozart on Tuesday evening. Small yet beautiful pieces.

Good morning 🦋
