Angel in the Sky Taro Hakase (Taro Hakase)

An angelic voice drifting softly through the air.

Oh, who’s singing? As you listen on, you find Hakase’s steady melody there.

Like a bird freely soaring across the sky, it stretches long and flows—downward, upward—without a break in the tune.

And don’t miss Hakase’s blisteringly fast, virtuosic technique that could be mistaken for an electric guitar.

Libertango_Taro Hakase (Taro Hakase)

This is the first time I’ve encountered music (tango) that makes me want to keep listening for so long.

And I think it’s music that expresses the piece called tango in a very cool way.

The harmonies are so beautiful they give me chills and draw me in.

Song of Kamijima TownHakasé Tarō39rank/position

Song of Kamijima Town

This is the image song for Kamijima Town in Ehime Prefecture, created by Taro Hakase, one of Japan’s leading violinists.

After actually visiting the town, Hakase turned the emotions he felt from its scenery and the character of its people into music—resulting in a special piece written exclusively for Kamijima.

The gently played violin melody evokes the calm sound of the Seto Inland Sea’s waves and the pleasant breeze that sweeps through the islands.

Listening to it, you can almost see the sunlit, shimmering sea and the lush, green islands.

It’s a gem of an instrumental piece that lets you feel the warm atmosphere of Kamijima Town through music.

Little DoctorHakasé Tarō40rank/position

Composed by Taro Hakase! Special release of the program’s theme song “Hakase-chan”!!

This is the theme song for the TV Asahi variety show “Sandwichman & Mana Ashida’s Little Doctor.” Its up-tempo, familiar rhythm, the superb arrangement of the band sound, and its fusion with violin capture the straight, sparkling essence of children and their boundless curiosity, making it a hopeful cheer song perfect for the program.

It’s also a track that makes adults want to return to their childhood, reminding them of that thrilling excitement from back then!

The Eternal IchijodaniHakasé Tarō41rank/position

Ichijodani Asakura Clan Ruins PV and Theme Song “Eternal Ichijodani”

It’s a relaxed, unhurried melody, fitting for the tranquil Ichijodani.

Unusually for a piece by Hakuase, a fleeting, dreamlike sadness flickers through it.

I’d love to listen to it in a quiet, dark space, illuminated only by candlelight.

Pay attention not only to the violin, but also to the soft, shimmering sound of the bells.

Nagasaki NocturneHakasé Tarō42rank/position

Taro Hakase “Nagasaki Nocturne”

This piece, like a grand romance created by Taro Hakase, is surely a perfect masterpiece for appreciating the splendor of Nagasaki’s night views.

Among recent songs that evoke Nagasaki, isn’t “Nagasaki Nocturne” the most polished, delighting the prefecture’s residents as well? Please give it a listen.
