Bravo!! Bravo!! Another incredible precision performance by the incredible KT SHS Band. I think this one is especially notable because this must have been such an incredibly difficult and disappointing year due to the COVID-19 virus, especially for the seniors who have worked so hard over the past two years.
So many events and competitions cancelled. But, as doger0103 noted in the previous comment, what a great victory and achievement in a most difficult year. Every one of you beautiful ladies and gentleman have shown the true professionalism, discipline and pride in your hard work.
No virus or disaster can ever overcome or defeat the deep held spirit in the historic halls of the Kyoto Tachibana SHS Band. While it’s members, sadly for us, rotate through high school life. The spirit of Tachibana consistently lives on to eternity as an awe inspiring and unexplainable force, and the reason for that is because each of you inherits and keeps alive the pride and excellence of every generation of sempi’s before you. And you do it with incredible care and humbleness.
Thank you for the light and joy you have brought into this world, I for one am better for it.
Congratulations to all of you!!!!!! God bless you, keep your smiles bright and stay well always.

Yes Yes Yes 🙌
A fantastic achievement to win the tournament by video 👏
There are some great bands out there and therefore competition is very high.
So to win against your fellow competitors is an incredible honour and deservedly so.
I am extremely proud for you all in that amazing performance you did. The hours of preparation, to get it to perfection, in your own time is highly commendable and massive pat on your backs from each and everyone of you 👍
I assume some of you now graduated 🧑🎓, so what an incredible reward to leave with after 3 great years👏 And the first and second years have now tasted victory and I am sure it will inspire for more😉
So all I can is:- “ The Future is Bright the future is Orange 🍊
