| Japanese July 25, 2003: The 29th YMF Record (part 6) YMF: Yufuin medieval western music visiting | |
|  Kinrin pond attracts many visitors from early in the morning. | |
|  | Ducks enjoy morning water. We will have a concert at an art museum. I started to get there on foot. | 
| Staffs passed me by car one after another. I have been getting tired with heavy bags in hands and asked them to bring for me. It took about 30 minutes after all. |  | 
|  | Artegio was newly built in last October in Yufuin Fantasy Forest. The exhibitions displayed on the floor were removed for the concert. Takei stands in the center of the floor. | 
| The staff of Medieval Music Research flock in twos and threes. |  | 
|  | We have enough time before the start. We enjoyed wonderful tea and greens outside of the building. Sudden shower reminds me of an atmosphere of autumn. | 
|  |  | 
| Tasty teas | |
| refreshed us. Male staff bring in the stage. As it was wet with rain, female staff wipe them up. |  | 
|  | Foldable chairs were set up like this. | 
| A snap in front of a glass ornament. |  | 
|  | Tuning has started on the stage. | 
| Chorus rehearsal started as well. |  | 
|  The performance started at last. Oita Medieval Western Music Research Society sings wonderful chorus under the conduct of Shigemi Takei. | |
|  | The souvenir corner attracts many guests. | 
| The guest artists are Shigeharu Yamaoka of English flute and Masako Hiraoka of Viola Da Gamba. |  | 
|  | Takei is happy with the members after the performance. | 
| The couple of Yamaoka and Hirao have performed very well. An old musical instrument Viola Da Gamba and Hirao's costume match very well. |  | 
| July 25, 2003: The 29th YMF: Michio Kobayahi harpsichord recital | |
|  | After cleaning up the site and checking the sales, we soon headed to Tokyu Golf Club for the evening concert. | 
| The last golfer went back and we started the preparation of the site. |  | 
|  | The performance will be held in a spacious hall on the second floor of the club house. Mt. Yufu stands beautifully in the distance. "The rainy season was over today", TV said. | 
|  | |
| Michio Kobayashi always explains the music politely. Many guests expect it and his wonderful art. | |
