Today, Master Idaki Shin’s piano concert was held at Mitaka City Arts Center “Wind Hall.” True to its name, at Wind Hall, the piano’s sound blows like wind. I was looking forward to the concert in that irreplaceable hall where one can hear such comfortable and pleasant performance. The message contained words and contents that I had never heard before. However, in the depths of my life, I felt that it made sense. It was also my own suffering. By understanding it, I was able to utilize myself without suffering, and it has become a very happy experience. I understood well that it was hard for me because I did not understand. From the words, “Light is born from darkness,” I feel relieved that what I have suffered for years will finally melt away. I now understand deeply that the suffering comes from dividing what was originally one. And the darkness can turn into light. There is nothing more hopeful than this. One can understand this with one’s own life through the experience of the concert. It becomes strength to live. The performance is filled with beauty, love, and romance, unfolding a rich and wide range of tones that seem almost beyond the piano’s sound . Just listening to the sound is delightful. Not only that, but within the sound, there is meaning of life, truth, love, and eternity. There is no experience more wonderful than this. I am happy to have experienced it with everybody. Thank you very much.
