土曜日にピアノの発表会がありました。この発表会にはもう何回も出ていますが、他の習い事でこれから忙しくなりそうだから、今回が最後のピアノの発表会でした。僕はみんなとアンサンブルで弾きました。アンサンブルのメンバーは、僕と妹とお母さんといとこです。僕とお母さんはピアノで妹はダンスを踊りました。いとこも踊りました。とても楽しかったです。
I had a piano recital on Saturday. I have performed in this same recital many times before, but as I will probably be very busy with other extracurricular activities from now on, this will probably be the last time.
I played with others in an ensemble. Our ensemble was made up of me, my sister, mom and my cousin. Mom and I played the piano and my sister danced. My cousin danced as well. It was lots of fun.

REMARKS
習い事 :
Extracurricular activities are very important in Japan. By far most children do at least one, but usually 2 or 3 of them on top of their studies. Music is a popular one, as are sports such as swimming and soccer, but more traditional things such as Japanese calligraphy are common as well.
