Gospel music is a genre of Christian music. The creation, performance, significance, and even the definition of gospel music varies according to culture and social context. Gospel music is composed and performed for many purposes, including aesthetic pleasure, religious or ceremonial purposes, and as an entertainment product for the marketplace. Gospel music usually has dominant vocals (often with strong use of harmony) with Christian lyrics. Some modern gospel music, however, is not explicitly Christian and just utilizes the sound.

Moerenuma Park (in Sapporo, Japan)

I uploaded a new video "Moerenuma Park (in Sapporo, Japan)" on my YouTube channel.







Moerenuma Park (モエレ沼公園, Moerenuma Kōen) is a municipal park in Sapporo, Japan. It has playground equipment, outdoor sports fields, and objects that are designed by Isamu Noguchi, a Japanese American artist. Construction began in 1988; the park opened in 2005. It won a number of awards including the Good Design Award in 2002.
[From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]

The biggest symbol of the park is a glass pyramid near the eastern entrance. The pyramid has the nickname "Hidamari", which means "sunny spot" in Japanese. The nickname was given in 2002 and selected from 2,340 applications. With a floor space of 5,328 m², the pyramid has three floors and a roof overlooking a large part of the park. The top floor houses the gallery of Isamu Noguchi and the miniature model of the park. A restaurant and museum shop are on the ground floor. The pyramid has an air conditioning system to cool down inside in summer, using snow stored in a neighbouring storage building during winter. Hidamari is also used for workshops and events including the Prestigious International Conference on Music and Perception with a concert by John Kaizen Neptune in 2008 in the rooms on the ground and second floors.
[From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]

The Tetra Mound, an object with triangle stainless steels (one of the creations of Isamu Noguchi) is placed in the western side. Several events have been held in the square close by. The Mt. Moere occupies large part of the park. It is 62 metres high, which enables visitors to overlook the landscape of the park and northern part of the Sapporo city. More playground equipment is near the Forest of Cherry Trees and the Moere Beach, which is a shallow pond open during summer.
[From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]

A 150-metre canal, the Aqua Plaza, is in the centre of the park, and the Sea Fountain is constructed near the canal. The fountain reaches 25 meters high when it jets out, and it is closed during winter. The monument called Music Shell is used as the musical venue. It is shaped to imitate two shells swelling up from the ground — as the name indicates.

Wakkanai (稚内市, Wakkanai-shi, Ainu: ヤㇺワッカナイ Yam-wakka-nay meaning "cold water river"), (Russian: Вакканай) is a city located in Sōya Subprefecture, Hokkaido, Japan. It is the capital of Sōya Subprefecture, and the northernmost city in Japan. It contains Japan's northernmost point, Cape Sōya, from which the Russian island of Sakhalin can be seen.
As of 1 June 2019, the city has an estimated population of 33,869 and a population density of 44.5 persons per km² (126 persons per mi²). The total area is 761.47 km2 (294.01 sq mi).
[From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia]

Cape Sōya (宗谷岬, Sōya-misaki) is the northernmost point of the island of Hokkaidō, Japan. It is situated in Wakkanai, Sōya Subprefecture. The Monument of the Northernmost Point of Japan (日本最北端の地の碑) is at the cape, although the true northernmost point under Japanese control is a small deserted island called Bentenjima, 1 kilometre (3,300 ft) northwest. Since the cape is just 43 kilometres (27 mi) away across La Perouse Strait from Cape Crillon, Sakhalin Island, Russia, it is possible to catch a glimpse of the island of Sakhalin on a clear day.
There are more than ten monuments at Cape Sōya, including the Monument of the northernmost Point of Japan, the Tower of Prayer (a memorial to Korean Air Lines Flight 007, shot down in 1983), a statue of Mamiya Rinzō, the Monument of Peace (a memorial to the sunken submarine USS Wahoo, and others). Sōya Misaki settlement, east of the cape, has many facilities known to be "the northernmost in Japan", such as the northernmost lighthouse (Cape Sōya Lighthouse), the northernmost filling station (Idemitsu Cape Sōya SS), the northernmost elementary school (Ōmisaki Elementary School), and so on.

Hokumon Jinja (北門神社) is a Shinto shrine in Wakkanai, Hokkaidō, Japan. In Tenmei 5 (1785), Matsumae Domain trader and agent Murayama Denbee (村山伝兵衛) (1738–1813) is said to have founded the small shrine of Sōya Daijingū (宗谷大神宮), enshrining Amaterasu as guardian of the north gate. In 1896 the shrine was transferred to its current location and renamed Hokumon Jinja, with Takemikazuchi and Kotoshironushi enshrined alongside Amaterasu. In 1902 work on the shrine buildings was completed, but on 17 May 1911 the whole complex was destroyed by a wild fire. 1913 saw the rebuilding of the Honden and Haiden and in 1916 Hokuman Jinja was ranked as a Village Shrine. In 1925 the shrine offices were donated and in 1933 Hokumon Jinja was promoted to the rank of District Shrine. The hexagonal shrine mikoshi was dedicated in 1949 and in 1978 the new shrine building was completed and a transfer ceremony held.
