While preparing for the unexpected with insurance and trying to stay active in daily life, Hikorohee is joined by Josephine the Afghan Hound, who’s also working hard to exercise—so cute!

The beautiful piano melody is gently overlaid with strings that weave a lovely harmony.
The soft tones are so calming they almost feel like they have a healing effect, and it feels like a waste to confine them to a short commercial—you’ll want to keep listening longer.

The music conveys the feeling that life has both good moments and setbacks, and that both of them shape who we are and the future we envision.
The brightly spun melody, with a trumpet-like tone, seems to give us the strength to stay positive no matter what happens.

Harami-chan, a pianist drawing attention for her exceptional technique.
She’s appearing in and sparking buzz with Kampo Life Insurance’s commercial, “Let’s Move More with Radio Calisthenics.” In it, many people get moving to the Radio Calisthenics music performed by Harami-chan.
The highlight is how she arranges the universally known Radio Calisthenics tune into her own signature sound.
The poppy arrangement is irresistibly catchy.
It’s also great that we get to see her performance up close.
