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.

I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

When feelings of love grow too strong, a possessive streak can emerge.

This song expresses that emotion.

It’s sung by Tomoe Shinohara, who sparked a boom and was affectionately known as “Shinora.” Nostalgic, isn’t it? Up until the chorus, the tone stays calm, but when the chorus hits, the song surges, making it sound like a cry from the heart.

Highly recommended!

A song by BUMP OF CHICKEN chosen as the theme for the animated film “Love Me, Love Me Not,” which portrays the romantic entanglements of four high school students.

Tokimeki Part 1supittsu

At the beginning of love, a swirl of conflicting emotions arises.

For instance, you might want to be liked and get closer to the person, yet at the same time avoid getting close because you don’t want to be disliked.

Tokimeki Part 1 is a song that captures those contradictory feelings.

Written by Spitz as the theme song for the film Water Flows Toward the Sea, it’s a mid-tempo ballad with the band’s signature refreshing vibe.

Give it a listen while recalling the early days of falling in love.

My Cute Unrequited Love / Onriame [Official MV]

My cute unrequited loveOtoniriame

The women’s music unit “Onria-me.” It’s pronounced “Neriame,” and their appeal lies in punchy tracks born from the powerful tag team of Akari, who handles arrangement and trackmaking, and Akane, who writes lyrics and composes.

Their song “Kawaii Watashi no Kataomoi” (“My Cute Crush”) features adorable lyrics that portray a girl’s heart—devoted to the boy she likes but unable to be honest about her feelings.

Both members handle the vocals, and their girlish voices, perfectly matching the song’s vibe, become more addictive the more you listen.

The MV’s pop-style illustrations will draw you right in, too!
