東北・桜 Tohoku Sakura (credits in description below)

I uploaded this to another platform on this date a year ago on the 10 year anniversary of the big east Japan triple disaster. This is a song of hope for the people of Tohoku.

この歌を去年の同じ日にはちがうplatformにuploadしました。東日本大震災の10年記念日でした。今年の11年記念日にはRumbleにuploadしたい。これは東北の人々のための希望の歌です。

このrecordingのあとからこのグループに新しいメンバーがさんかしたとがっきのぶんもうすこしaddしました。未来にその新しいグループでビデオをつくりたい。そのあいだに、これをきってください。

Since making this video, we have had some new people join our group and we've added to the instrumental parts. We would like to do a video of the newer version some day, but until then, please listen to this version and pray for Japan.

There is still more work to do on this song, but I wanted to release a simple version on the 10th anniversary of the big earthquake and tsunami in memory of that event with the desire that people who experienced that will receive healing in their hearts.
With the anniversary of that disaster and the past year of CoVid hardship, people need some rest and healing for their hearts. May this song be soothing to your soul.

We will continue to work on it to make a better version and release it at a later time.
The video had some glitches, but there was a short time to prepare it after the music was recorded.
