Just a Quick Update

おはよおおございます！

にじゅっぷんに　にほんの　じゅぎょうが　あります。

Go Irish, Beat Jackets.  What a game it was.  The Irish are 3-0 and #6 in the country!  UMass is coming in next to try and slow our roll, or injure more of our starters, or both. I'm not really sure anymore.

Hope you all enjoyed your respective weekends and clobbering the Irish greeted those bees with.  I know I did.

Your saxophone arrangement for this post is the theme from the anime series, "Case Closed" or "Dectective Conan." The show started in 1996 and is still going on today, in addition to having a really catchy theme song. Enjoy!

じゃあ、またあ。

すみません。I certainly have been remiss in updating my blog, but better late than never, I suppose!
   

Yep. That guy right there is none other than Hayao Miyazaki, world famous director, animator, and co-founder of Studio Ghibli.  I only came into Ghibli fandom a couple of years ago after seeing Spirited Away for the first time.  I am still working on watching all of the films, but they definitely have me hooked.  One of my favorite things about Ghibli films is their consistently high quality soundtracks.  For those who may not know, I play the saxophone in the band here at Notre Dame and am a bit of band geek, so I tend to pay a lot of attention to the music in movies.  In fact, a couple of weeks ago while trolling around on YouTube, I found a medley of songs from Ghibli movies arranged for saxophones.  Naturally I found the sheet music so I could play it, so that will be a fun project for me over the course of this semester! Here's the video I found so you can listen to it as well and hear how cool it is! Enjoy!

I'm signing off for now, expect another update from me very soon!
しつれいします！
