札幌コンサートホール Kitara

My favourite activity from the month of June must be a hike up Akadake with a good friend and colleague from Sapporo Symphony Orchestra, who has been so kind as to show me many different hikes in Hokkaido this year! It was an overnight trip, we stayed in a charming Ryokan, with delicious Japanese food, and the weather was beautiful at the top, with a view of Asahidake, covered in zebralike drifts of snow! We were also able to enjoy the hundreds of different species of wild flower, as well as a fun scramble across boulders at the top of the mountain! Next time however, it might be wise for me to cover my neck, as the sun was quite strong! Another highlight from the month of June was the chance to play with Sapporo Symphony Orchestra at the harpsichord, which was wonderfully exciting! Since rehearsals were held at Sapporo Art Park, it also gave me a chance to discover that beautiful place.

6月で一番楽しかったアクティビティは、良き友人であり仲間でもある、札幌交響楽団のメンバーと赤岳に登ったことです。ありがたいことに、今年に入ってからさまざまな北海道のハイキングスポットに連れて行ってもらっています！赤岳へは、和食が美味しい素敵な旅館に1泊してから向かいました。山頂は最高の天気で、ゼブラ柄に残る雪に覆われた旭岳の景色を満喫できました！また、何百種類もの自然の花々も楽しめましたし、山頂では大きな岩によじ登って登頂を果たしました！ただ、かなり日差しが強かったので、次回は首を覆うようにしようと思います！6月のもう一つのハイライトは、札幌交響楽団とチェンバロで共演できたことで、最高にワクワクしました！また、芸術の森でリハーサルが行われたので、美しい園内を散策する機会にもなりました。
