Chorus
This page introduces my favorite Japanese chorus songs.

The Life of Water
(Mizu no Inochi)
Saburo Takata

This album expresses our lives by comparing them to the circulation of  water. It first rains, becomes puddles or flows into rivers, then arrives at sea, and then rises to sky again. The lyric and the music very catch the common points between water and humans' lives.

Have a Song on Your Lip
(Kuchibiru ni Uta wo)
Takatomi Nobunaga

This album uses German lyrics. We sing them in both  German and Japanese. The composer, Nobunaga Takatomi, is good at making fresh and pop songs. This album brings out his good points.

Ryokan's Love Songs
(Ryokan Somon)
Hideki Chihara

The lyrics of this work are based on the letters between a bonze, Ryokan, and his disciple and love, Teishinni. The composer, Chihanra Hideki, expresses their pure love and Ryokan's religeous idea.

My song is
(Waga uta ha)
Noboru Kitagawa

By a lucky chance, my chorus club and other two clubs premiered this production. As the title, 'My song is', it gave me a chance to think what songs are for me. If you sing or listen to this album, I want you to think what is song for you.
