Coin of Happiness

This is a classical guitar solo performed by Masaharu Fukuyama, who commands an overwhelming presence not only as a singer-songwriter but also as an actor.

Created as the main theme for the film The End of the Matinee, released in November 2019, the piece was newly composed by Yugo Kanno and supervised by world-renowned guitarist Shin-ichi Fukuda.

Unlike his usual singing voice, it conveys the story’s emotion and the passage of time solely through the guitar’s timbre, whose delicate resonance quietly stirs the listener’s heart.

It’s also surprising that this marked Fukuyama’s first attempt at classical guitar.

Precisely because it’s an instrumental without lyrics, it’s perfect as background music to enhance concentration while working or studying.
