This concert tour debuted from Hakase's desire to "take a step ahead of gentle healing and create works that inspire the listeners' feelings while the world is being attacked by an unknown pandemic." The 30th anniversary original album "FRONTIERS" is carried. Starting with Olympus Hall Hachioji in Tokyo, which sells out with the number of seats that keep the social distance up to half the capacity, 43 performances will be held at 27 venues nationwide.
The performance on the first day, which marks the beginning of the tour, starts with the new song "START!", Which is included in the first song of the guidepost that sets the direction of the album. The straight 8 beats inspired the feelings of the spectators sitting in the audience seats, which was different from usual, and brightened the atmosphere of the venue at once. Next, we performed "MORNING SHOW" and went to the first MC.
At the MC, Hakase said, "Welcome to you. I'm Taro Hakase. Thank you." "There were times when I couldn't do a concert, so I was really happy to welcome you today. I had the same amount of anxiety as I expected, but I am very happy to be on the stage again in front of you in this way. " In addition, "This year is the 30th anniversary of my debut, so I was thinking about various big projects. I was planning a nationwide tour with the orchestra in the spring, but I could not do it, and in the summer it is also outdoors I couldn't do anything like a music festival, and it's been the first big concert for me since the end of last year. I was consulting with everyone until the very end of this tour, but I said, "I want to go one step further. I decided to do a nationwide tour starting today and ending at the end of the year. " Then he played "Boys Be Ambitious", "Manta's Song" and "Ave Maria". "Manta's Song" invites the audience to a rich land that the audience does not know, and "Ave Maria" brings a new arrangement unique to Hagase that harmonizes classical masterpieces with modern sounds to "a deep world of music". lead.
There is also an introduction corner for original concert goods by Hakase, who is very popular with fans. As a measure to prevent the infection of the new corona, the sale of goods in the lobby during breaks is abolished, and only online sales are available on the web. If you can buy it. Unfortunately, I'm not in time for today's concert, but I'll be traveling all over the country after tomorrow, so please come somewhere! (Laughs) "and the usual" Hakase-bushi "excited the venue.
The second part after the break starts with "Can't Help Falling In Love" by Elvis Presley. Hagase colored the masterpieces that did not fade with a glittering tone, and the audience at the venue was fascinated. In addition, after the concert's piano and music director Takeshi Hageta performed the new song "Fragrant Woods", which will be released for the first time in Japan, the concert will reach its climax with "Between Calmness and Passion" and "Take On Me" by Hakase.
The last performance is "Jonetsu Tairiku" to meet the demands of the audience. It was a passionate performance suitable for the last, and it was exciting to communicate with the audience.
Hakase, who reappeared in the encore, commented, "Thank you very much for today. I want to do my best until the end of the year!" And closed the concert with "Etupirka".
