On the 14th, writer Haruki Murakami (72) held a live event “MURAKAMI JAM Naughty Bossa Nova” on TOKYO FM “Murakami RADIO”, where he is a DJ, at TOKYO FM Hall in Tokyo.

Mr. Murakami asked Kaori Muraji (42), a guitarist who appeared that day, “How much do you practice?” Muraji replied, “4 to 5 hours. Recently, I don’t play for a few days after recording because I want to improve it. The good thing about novelists is that you don’t have to practice. Manuscript practice I’ve never done that.”

Miu Sakamoto (40), who co-organized the event, may be practicing writing a play. He replied, “I’m getting the manuscript fee, so it’s not practical. I like it.” He laughed: “Some people can’t write without a deadline, but I write when I want … it’s special.”

The theme of the day’s live performance was Brazilian music bossa nova. Lisa Ono (58), who lived in Brazil until she was 10 years old, sang four songs in Portuguese, and Murakami said: “It is really wonderful. Portuguese is beautiful and fits with bossa nova. Spain When I sing with words, it is completely different The fluffy beat really matches, “he said with a big smile.
