Baton of the HeartSakushi sakkyoku: Shinzawa Toshihiko
How can we convey feelings that can’t be seen…? Giving voice to that thought through the word “baton,” this is a choral piece for graduations, with lyrics and music by Toshihiko Shinzawa.
It begins with the wish that if our hearts had shape or color, we could hand them over right away, and goes on to depict bonds that, though invisible, are surely connected.
The song was included on the album “Sakura♪ SONGS 2 ~Kimi to Boku no La La La~,” released in November 2016, and was selected for the Hall of Fame on the childcare portal “Hoick.” The two-part chorus version is also included in choral anthologies for farewell and graduation ceremonies.
It’s perfect for moments when teachers and children—or children with one another—want to reaffirm their heartfelt connections.
Highly recommended for classes that want to express gratitude to their teachers at preschool graduation, or as a send-off song from current students to graduating ones.
Koma-neko Sistersfuyuzashiki
This is a Japanese-style Vocaloid song that portrays the daily life of a cat living at a shrine and its Shinto priest.
Created by Fuyuzashiki, it was released in November 2025.
Sung by Kagamine Rin, it adorably depicts a devoted cat carrying tea and conveys a single-hearted desire to stay by the side of someone precious.
The lyrics are especially striking for the coexistence of a resolve to “let no one take this everyday life away” and the readiness to face the farewell that will one day come.
It’s a must-listen for anyone who cherishes the happiness of ordinary days and for cat lovers alike!
Premonition of Loveanzenchitai
This is a representative ballad by Anzen Chitai from the 1980s, characterized by a relaxed melody and a tempo that isn’t too fast.
The overall vocal range of the song is C#3 to G#4, with many lower notes, so expressiveness is more important than pure vocal power.
I think the calm voice of a man in his 60s would really shine here.
In terms of singing style, it’s easy to add dynamics between the verse and the chorus: sing the verse softly, almost as if you’re speaking, and then pour your emotions into the higher notes of the chorus and sing out fully.
That way, it won’t feel flat, and it will be easier for listeners to enjoy.
loveMatsuyama Chiharu
It’s a love ballad by Chiharu Matsuyama, and it’s the kind of song where you really need to be mindful of the spaces, or you won’t quite catch the groove.
If you only look at the lyrics, you might feel like singing line after line without pause, but if you place each phrase carefully and let the resonance linger, it will deepen the sense of poignancy.
The overall vocal range is C3 to G4, so it’s not too high and there’s no need to belt.
When the chorus comes, project your voice, add clear dynamics, and sing with confidence—the performance will land stylishly.
That way, even listeners who don’t know the song will recognize where the chorus is and will be able to groove along with you!
this winterMakihara Noriyuki
Noriyuki Makihara’s serene ballad depicting winter gently weaves in the season’s atmosphere alongside the quiet happiness of everyday life.
Through distinctly wintry visual motifs—like the cold and white breaths—you feel a tender gaze that contemplates the closeness of lovers and the accumulation of time, which truly resonates.
Included on the album “PHARMACY,” released in October 1994, and later selected for the 1997 best-of compilation “SMILING II ~THE BEST OF NORIYUKI MAKIHARA~,” the song may not be flashy, but it has long been cherished as a beloved winter staple.
It’s the kind of track you’ll want to play softly on a quiet night before the New Year, while spending time with someone special.
The Root of the HeartNEUTRINO
If you’re looking for a moving song for graduation season from kindergarten, how about “Kokoro no Nekko” sung by the NEUTRINO vocal synthesis software? Its lyrics—about children who have grown up before you know it and how the days spent with friends will support them in the future—are sure to bring tears to the eyes of parents and teachers.
The song, written and composed by Namu Minami and beloved for many years, gained wider recognition when it was included on albums such as “Sotsuen no Uta: Best Songs that Stay in Your Heart,” released in November 2008.
NEUTRINO’s clear, transparent vocals are pitch-accurate and can serve as a helpful guide when learning the melody.
Singing it at a graduation ceremony or recital will fill the venue with warmth.
Please try singing it together with the children, with all your hearts.

Treasure in the Heartsakushi sakkyoku : yoshizawa takayuki
This work gently embraces the emotion of the day a child is born and the joy of their growth up to now.
The lyrics, which speak of cherishing the warmth of holding a tiny hand and tucking the days spent together into a special place in the heart, are especially memorable.
Written and composed by Takayuki Yoshizawa, an active childcare worker who also serves as a nursery school director, it was released in October 2010.
While it’s known as a song for parents to sing to their children, it’s also perfect for older kindergarteners to sing in gratitude to the families they love.
Sung with sincerity at a graduation ceremony or recital, it’s sure to fill the venue with warm tears and deep emotion.
As the children take their first steps toward the future, why not sing it together with them?
