Synopsis
Dai Miyamoto, a high school student living in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture, has a straight personality, but he was living a student life without knowing what he wanted to do in the future. One day, he listened to a jazz song and became interested in it. He starts working part-time to buy a saxophone. His brother, Masayuki, who knew about it, bought a saxophone with a loan and gave it to him as a gift. Dai, who practiced the saxophone on the river bank after school every day, was invited to perform live by the owner of a musical instrument shop he met while buying reeds. He was yelled at by a regular customer that it was just loud and noisy, and he got off the stage in a daze and went home. After that, as he continues his daily practice, the master of the jazz bar where Dai has appeared introduces Yui, a music class instructor. Although he gave a lot of failing marks to Dai's performance, he was invited to come to his house next time, and Dai willingly accepted. By attending classes, Dai's performance increased in power, and his delicate side also improved. Dai decides to move to Tokyo after graduating from high school to become a saxophone player, and invites the patrons of the jazz bar who yelled at him on the first stage before coming to Tokyo to listen to his current performance. The regular customer left the store after listening to the performance until the end while frowning.
