Accompanist / Piano Instructoryuri
Accompanist pianist × piano instructor × web writer. I began piano lessons at age four and, inspired by my piano teacher, decided to pursue music. I went on to specialized music programs in high school and university, where I discovered the appeal of accompanying instrumentalists and singers. Currently, alongside teaching piano, I work mainly in my home region of Aichi as an accompanist for flute, voice, choir, and more. Through lessons, my students often introduce me to trending songs, and my hobby is trying anything on the piano—Japanese and Western pop, commercial jingles, and beyond. Since 2021, I’ve also been active as a web writer, covering music and a variety of other genres.

If only I could say I love youKERENMI & atarayo

KERENMI & Atarayo – If Only I Could Say I Like You (Theme song for the film 'The Exchange Diary of Lies')

If only I could say I love youKERENMI & atarayo

The digitally released track “Tada Suki to Ietara” was selected as the theme song for the live-action film Kokan Uso Nikki, which is based on a coming-of-age novel.

It’s a collaboration between KERENMI—the project led by music producer Koichi Tsutaya that’s been generating buzz—and Atarayo, a band known for the tagline “a band that grows by eating sadness.” With a simple ensemble and a hooky melody, it’s an undeniably catchy number.

The delicate lyrics, which overlap with the film’s story, evoke a sense of nostalgia.

A pop tune with gentle vocals and a refreshing arrangement that feels so good you’ll want to keep it on repeat.

Future Projection IIDREAMS COME TRUE

DREAMS COME TRUE – Future Prediction Map II ~VERSION '07~ (from Live from DWL 2015 Live Ver.)

Future Projection IIDREAMS COME TRUE

Speaking of the group commonly known as DoriCam, this song is a classic! I can’t help but think every happy couple in love in Japan listens to it (lol).

No matter how many times I hear it, or how many years I keep listening, it always feels fresh.

It must be because of the straightforward lyrics and vocals, and Yoshida Miwa’s endlessly soaring voice.

And it takes you back to the very origins of what it feels like to be in love! I’m sure it’s the one and only masterpiece we’ll still be able to listen to together, smiling at each other, even when we’re an old couple!
