☆My dear teacher , Elisabeth

How are you ?
It has been very cold recently in Japan .
There's a lot of flu about .
I have a slight cold , but it's OK .
I hope you are fine ...

I'd like to introduce Miss . Kirie Maruoka ,
who is the ex-owner of "Basin Street"in Kobe , Japan .
She is going to N.Y.C. on February 1st
and go to your live performance at 55 Bar on 2nd .
She also would like to take your lesson during 1st to 4th .
I told you before about Miss. Kirie Maruoka .
She had planned to visit N.Y.C. at the end of January .
But her schedule was changed to February .

Please take care of yourself ...
Good luck !

Your student , Yuko Tsukazaki

★Dear Yuko

Thank you for your e-mail.
It is not so cold here in New York.
I just came back from Los Angeles,
which was a nice and interesting trip.
I am looking forward to meeting Ms. Kirie Maruoka.
Please have her e-mail me,
so that we can arrange a lesson plan for her.
The semester has started again at the New School,
and I am busy teaching there again since Tuesday.
I hope you'll feel better soon!
How is your singing?
All the best

Your teacher
Elisabeth Lohninger

☆Dearest Elisabeth ,

Thank you very much for your quick reply .

I have been to Los Angeles once , too !
It was very nice place to go sightseeing .

You sound very busy with working as usual ...
I'd like to make an appointment to take your lesson
for Miss. Kirie Maruoka .
She said that anytime is OK during 1st to 4th .
Could you tell me your available date ?
I gave your e-mail address to her .
So she will try to send an e-mail to you after .
And she is going to go to your live performance
at 55 Bar in N.Y.C. on February 2nd with her friend .
I'll envy them ...
I wish I could be there , too !!!

I have just done my live performances on January 21st
without any troubles .
I tried "Quiet Nights Of Quiet Stars (Corcovado)" ,
"My Romance " , " All Of Me with scat ",
"How High The Moon with scat "
and " At Last" which you taught me .
I'm going to practice "Softly , As In A Morning Sunrise "
which you sang at 55 Bar last August
for my next performance in March and May .
I will tell you more about my singing in my next e-mail .
See you soon .

Keep well ,
Your student , Yuko Tsukazaki

★My dear student , Yuko

How are you?
Thank you so much for sending me Ms. Kirie Maruoka.
She just took an intense 2hour lesson with me
and was wonderful to work with.
I also thank you for the gift I have received and the lovely card.
It is actually perfect and exactly what I needed!
I hope this e-mail finds you well and singing happily!
All the best

Your teacher

☆My dear teacher , Elisabeth

Thank you so much for your e-mail .

I'm very glad that Ms. Kirie Maruoka could meet you
and take your private lesson .
I'm happy that you received my gift and message card .
The key chain with a musical note is cute , isn't it ?
The small pearl is a Mikimoto pearl , very famous in Japan .
I also have the same one .
They are a pair , like us , teacher and student .
How lovely !!
In fact , it went to N.Y.C. twice .
Last November , I gave it to Ms. Emiko Tada
who is my teacher in Japan .
But she couldn't meet you ...
At last , it found you !!!

Although I'm sorry that Ms. Maruoka couldn't see
your live performance at 55 Bar ,
she had a great time with you .
She also liked you and said she felt
you are a trustworthy person and a great teacher .
I can't wait to have your lessons again in August ...

I became even more passionate about music after our lessons .
I love singing the songs you taught me .
I will do my best to make you proud , as a teacher , of my singing .

Until August ......

Love ,
Your student , Yuko Tsukazaki ♪
