In the section of "Atlantic Sunset",which started at 6 p.m. on Jul. 6th, I performed Japanese-English bilingual tanka reading.

It was a great experience for me because I was able to meet expressive performers such as the professors of music universities from all over the world including the communist bloc.

I found out that many of them have interests in short poems, and I would like to thank all of them who listened to my performance.
