Original texts from the reply postcards for the General Assembly
Isamu Kawahara: I am fortunately in good health and enjoying
myself every day.
Kazumi Saito: I always enjoy reading Meguro UNESCO’s newsletters. The concerts and cultural activities are all
so attractive, but I haven’t been able to spend my own time as I please, at
least for a year or two, as I am frequently asked to baby-sit my grandchild.
Noritomo Suzuki: Hi, everybody! How are you doing? I’m now
absorbed in painting. Sitting on the bank of the Arakawa, I paint in oils from the
morning till about three o’clock in the afternoon. Then I start working in the
evening. I work on weekends, too. My theme is “the people’s lives”. So, good
luck to you all!
Tomotaka Segawa: I won’t be able to attend the General
Assembly, for I have classes on Saturdays.
The exhibition of my own works will be held at Kawatoku in Morioka from
June 5 ? 11.
Shoko Tanabe: It is six years since I started looking after my husband. I hope to
do my best, as I give my gratitude to all those who have supported me through
these years.
Asa Nakajima: I’m in my first year in graduate school at the Vienna
Conservatory of Music. I stayed in
Japan this year, from March to April, to take part in the opera “Siegfried”
performed by NHK Symphony Orchestra.
I’ll be back again in July for a chamber music concert, and an opera
performance by Seiji Ozawa.
