Welcome!
太田妙子のサイトへようこそ。
２０２３年！今年もどうぞ宜しくお願いします。
昨年は５年振りに歌い始め、８月に日本での初ライブ、９月からのKing's Bar でのデュオシリーズ、横濱ジャズプロムナードなど、地元横浜でジャズの魅力に浸る一年となりました。
ライブやセッションを通して素敵なミュージシャンの方と演奏する喜びを感じ、今年２３年もさらに音楽の深みや幅を広げていきたいと切に願っています。
今年最初は横浜馬車道にあるKing's Bar Vignette で昨秋から始めた諸戸勝也さん(p)とのDuo６回シリーズ。
1/31(火)、2/15(水)で最後となります。ジャズ以外にもオリジナル、日本語の歌など、様々な音楽を歌いますので、是非お気軽にお立ち寄りください♫ ピアニスト諸戸さんと共に、寒い冬に心温まる音楽をお届けできればと思っています。
＊諸戸勝也(p) プロフィール：大学時代からプロ活動を開始。ジャズだけでなく演歌、歌謡曲のツアーサポート、劇伴、シャンソンなどオールマイティなピアニスト
Thank you so much for visiting my website. I really appreciate your interests and supports!
It was wonderful experiences to play with great musicians through gigs and sessions in 2022.
Jazz always leads me somewhere a new place so I can't help following it.
I'm looking forward to singing jazz in this year, too, to reach the next stage of my life where I've never seen before.
First, I will continue to have duo concert series on 1/31 (Tue) and 2/15 (Wed) at Vignette, King's Bar, Yokohama, my hometown.
Please visit the cozy space and listen to our music to make you warm!
My passion for the music is still full to play and compose new works in 2023. I will walk my way one by one, while I wish world peace...
Yes, we need more music for peaceful mind.
See you many places and let me sing to the borderless world for joy. Please join us anytime and anywhere!

P.S. I lost the best friend, Yaron Elyashiv last summer in 2022. It was huge grief and still hurt me a lot. I will never forget him and his music, taught me many precious things, including jazz. Without Yaron, I couldn't sing jazz now and had survived in New York. Thank you, Yaron. You will be in my heart forever.

" Ota’s lyrical delivery is sunny and warm.

Finally, my first album, Walk My Way, was released in January, 2016!
Trio: Masami Ishikawa (G), Seth Lewis (Bass), Paul Francis (D)
I am so lucky to play with such a great trio. In fact, their sound is truly amazing. Masami arranged a couple of my songs. Paul is usually playing with Lady Gaga. His drum and percussion brought such liveliness. Seth's deep and grounded bass sound tied it all together.
Most of them, nine songs are my originals, including two Japanese songs.
I will sing and share these music in many venues and hope to have wonderful moments with many people.
