This time, Miss Ayane Shindou, a nice girl offered me a piano music for a maple tree,

and it is her own work and is also played by herself.

I hear she is a young pianist, a young violinist and a young composer.

Many thanks !!!

It seems to have something fantastic and wonderful to me.

So, let me show this music for you from my page.

At first, let me introduce a part of her letter to you !

How are you today?

I am Ayane Shindou and made a piano melody and named it "Maple in the Moonlight".

When seeing this homepage by Mr. Hayashida, I was impressed to find that a part of my instrument, which I usually use in my daily life, is really made of maple wood.

Thus, I got interested in maple trees and that made me compose this melody.

In the main theme, I tried to represent a scene where a maple tree is standing alone beside the asphalt road in the moonlight. The tree seems to be sturdy and strong, but really seems to be lonely and seems to be absorbed in memory of his life.

At the developing part, I tried to represent the scene where leaves of the maple tree are swayed by the cold wind and the number of the leaves left is gradually decreasing.

I shall be very pleased if you would listen to my music imaging the maple tree lighted up yellow in the moonlight.
