I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Five points

A grand slam refers to when the bases are loaded—with runners on first, second, and third—and the batter hits a home run. In this situation, all the runners on base each score by reaching home plate, and the batter who hit the home run also touches home plate. As a result, a total of four runs score at once, which is the maximum number of runs that can be earned in a single play in baseball. It’s one of the most exciting and dramatic plays, capable of overturning the course of a game in an instant. Incidentally, it’s said that the only player to have hit two grand slams in a single inning is Fernando Tatis.
