A very popular project! A conversation with people on Twitter!

The Twitter account of the Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra (hereinafter referred to as the Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra) in Miyagi Prefecture, which stands out in the world of Japanese professional orchestras. The Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra (hereinafter referred to as Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra) Twitter account has been operating since 2010, and the number of followers is increasing while working hard to liven up the orchestra.
A discussion project for Twitter's "people in the middle" that was popular in the past. This time, two members of the Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra and the Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra spoke passionately and intensely.
In fact, the two of them are close friends even in private. It's already a blast! I, the facilitator, was laughed at all the time.
Please enjoy this hot "debate among people" because of the love of the orchestra!


One day in March, an online discussion.
As soon as it started, the topic of the office reflected in the background (laughs)
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
The office is clean~ nice~
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
I just moved recently, isn't it?
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
No, it's really nice ~ Our house is being redecorated for the first time in decades ~
facilitator
···nice to meet you! Thank you!
both
Oh please! smile
What an amazing icebreaker! Let's get down to business.
Aiming for tweets full of humanity
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
I wasn't in charge when the account was set up, but most of what I posted was about concerts. There were a lot of tweets with relatively mechanical concert information, and there weren't many tweets with a human touch.
There were no tweets that followers would want to retweet or want to spread.
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
First of all, it's amazing to realize that there is no humanity.
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
So, actually, behind the scenes is like this, I wanted to make a more human tweet about the secret story of musical instruments. I thought it would be nice to have a tweet that gives a glimpse of the personal feelings of the person inside, just like the official accounts of major companies that were popular at the time.
It's strangely human.
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
So the Kanagawa Philharmonic also saw the Sendai Philharmonic's attempt, and was inspired to give it a try. I don't think I could have done it alone.
Now the two of us are really messing around and people say things like, "Are you dating?" (laughs)
I wonder if this will get angry. It's really hard to draw the line.
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
oh yeah. We don't want it to become a personal account, it's just an official account of the Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra. Actually (laughs)
Funny tweets from the Sendai Philharmonic account
facilitator
By the way, have you ever had a so-called "flame" experience?
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
Or rather, I received a scolding from the members of the orchestra telling me not to play around and be a little more serious. You have experience.
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
I wonder if it's going up in flames~
Well, the rules aren't clearly delineated, so it's a matter of discretion as a manager and operator, and you have to decide whether you can write this or not, so it's still difficult. However, I always feel the responsibility of carrying about 70 members of the orchestra on my back, and I am conscious of posting. That's why the emotional tweets of the people inside and the official advertisement are written in different ways, and they are firmly separated.
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
Well, I'm always conscious of how my followers feel and how they receive it.

Sendai Philharmonic Serious Tweet

Kanagawa Philharmonic Serious Tweet
Twitter is an activity that expands the base
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
Let's sell concert tickets with a tool called Twitter! I don't think so.
Of course, it would be nice if it sold well, but first of all, I would like to increase the recognition of the Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra among those who do not know about it, and those who do not know about the orchestra itself. I want to expand the base of my fans, so I'm working on it.
This is because people from all over the world will be able to know their information in real time.
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
Our company is a little different, rather than wanting people to know about the Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra, I think we want to get rid of the image that an orchestra is something that has a high barrier to entry, and convey the joy and fun of it.
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
Yeah, in the first place, don't you really hate being told that it's "high threshold"! ?
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
I hate it! !
both
Don't worry about what to do if you clap by mistake or what to wear. Some people come in jinbei in summer (laughs). I can only say thank you for coming.
facilitator
Certainly, I am the type of person who thinks that I have to wear proper clothes. That's not true!
both
It's totally normal and good! (Once upon a time!)
I always wonder why people think it's too difficult, but if you come even just once, it should be cleared up, so please come and visit us. It's really funny!
Account appeal point
both
It has a certification mark, I guess (laughs)
At the time we got the certification mark, it was tough to get the certification. All application forms are in English. I applied with the help of Mr. Google. The Sendai Philharmonic failed the first time and won the second time.
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
The Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra has many accounts of members of the orchestra, and each one has a strong character, so it's interesting.
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
Oh yeah, I call them pleasant friends, but in addition to the members of the orchestra, in the secretariat there are librarians, inspectors (managers who act like managers for the entire orchestra), choir members (shadow people). ), the person in charge of managing the homepage (master), and the director are also on Twitter, and there are many accounts, and everyone retweet each other. So can you help me formally? There are also tweets from the perspective of a musical instrument player that I can't pick up.
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
I wonder if I've become a dog account~ (laughs) I think I'm making good use of the orchestra's advertising and loose tweets.
The Kanagawa Philharmonic's cheering mascot Brudal is also a dog!

Uncover the secrets of the man inside!
Kanagawa Philharmonic Orchestra
Actually, I can't eat natto. I absolutely cannot.
By the way, my favorite food is dorayaki.
Sendai Philharmonic Orchestra
Actually... cats and dogs can't touch it. I'm not good at living creatures in general.
His favorite food is the Tokyo Chocolate Waffle Sandwich. We are waiting for you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year (laughs).

burst of laughter
What do you want your followers to look forward to in the future?
both
April Fool's Day, something might happen? (smile)
I'm thinking about various things so that everyone can enjoy it, so please look forward to it! !
Lastly, I would like to ask you
"Anyway, come once! From the owner."
"Thank you!😎"
If you are a follower, you should know which one is which!
Thank you both.
