Fantastic,
This is so bright, so vocally great, and the choice of a Jazz Waltz is extremely refreshing.
Miya Nakajima's piano performance is absolutely superb. Everything about this truly shines.

Beautifully romantic descriptive lyrics. So much melancholy present and then the lovely vocalist brings the story very much alive. Very French mood. Great backing band. Surely it would be great to see her singing live.

Ohayō gozaimasu Shigeki Adachi  It's 11:00 a.m. here in Melbourne, Australia, right now and I've just come back from listening to "Sigh" on Soundcloud. This gif below pretty much shows you what my Soundcloud experience was like. It's a pity that the little dude is conducting in 2/4. I was waving my arms around in 3/4 Still, I think the image works apart from that little imperfection.  This is absolutely wonderful music. The musicians that are in your circle of friends are truly extraordinary. I always love listening to Natsuki Yoshikawa sing. She has such a beautiful voice. And I must compliment Miya Nakajima on her piano playing. The finesse with which she played jazz piano was as professional as anything I've ever heard. In addition, your EastWest Goliath MIDI drums and bass were a perfect fit! By every measure (pun intended), this was exquisite listening! All the very best, Noel

Very nice. It has a cabaret feel. Great piano playing. The vocals are clear and well presented. The lyrics are lovely (translation sheet).

Love the live instrument and vocal.
You've done a great job supplementing that with BIAB and mixing.

I want to join this chorus of gratitude for such work. The music and vocals are mesmerizing. I will now advise a friend to listen to your compositions. He is just beginning to learn about jazz. He downloads the tracks at https://mp3-converter.mymp3.red/. How cool that you have the opportunity to gather around the same talented performers. One disadvantage I find here - we need to hear more of your new compositions. LOL, I can only hope that many more of your compositions will please my ears. THANK YOU

Shigeki,
Outstanding composition! Jazz is perhaps the least approachable genre for me; always a challenge for me to hold onto the song. But this is just a wonderful arrangement, so well mixed. That piano work is excellent . . . as is the vocal. Terrific listen!
Hope all is well in your world,
Deej
