I chose the topic of present for a special day. This photo is the piano sheet music I received as a present. I was given this sheet music when I was in the third grade of elementary school. I wanted to play a certain song, so I asked Santa Claus to give me this sheet music for Christmas. I remember writing a letter to Santa Claus and leaving it by the window.

The song that I wanted to play was “Kiramekuhoshitachinorondo.” I wanted to play this song because I heard my friend play it at a recital and I thought it was very beautiful. This song is inspired by twinkling stars. There are many sounds that represent stars shining. I remember it was so much fun to play this song while imagining the stars twinkling. I love this song so l practiced it for a long time.

This sheet music brings back a lot of memories of those days. I have good memories of the days when my parents listened to me play the piano. I chose this topic because I have a lot of memories of this sheet music. This present is still a special treasure.
