We Performed at the Tokyo Choral Festival!
On Saturday, July 4, our choir, the Community Choir of the Society Concerned about Gambling Addiction, participated in the Tokyo Choral Festival for the first time, held at the Dai-ichi Seimei Hall.
Our choir engages in activities with the core value of living life positively and authentically on our own terms, even while facing the challenges of gambling addiction within our families. We took to the stage with the heartfelt desire to deliver a message of hope to others facing similar struggles, and to create an opportunity to raise widespread awareness of this issue through the power of song.Performed Pieces:
We performed the following two songs written and composed by singer-songwriter Koki Tanaka.
* Love Yourself Again
* Restart
