Kalafina "Hikari Furu"

They are a highly skilled vocal group that performs live not only in Japan but around the world.

With the trio’s flawless harmonies, their beautiful voices deliver a gem of a ballad that resonates with listeners’ hearts.

Although they are often the artists behind anime theme songs, they are loved by people of all ages—not just anime fans.

This song is one of their tracks used as an anime theme.

to the beginning

Kalafina is a vocal unit.

The song they created as the opening theme for the anime Fate/Zero 2nd season is “to the beginning.” This piece, explicitly described as having a “ballad-like” quality, begins with a gentle, subdued vocal delivery and gradually builds in intensity.

Another notable point is how clearly the parts are divided among the singers.

When people with different strengths—such as lower and higher registers—come together to sing, each performer’s unique appeal can be brought to the forefront.

Tried playing Kalafina's 'May Magic' on the piano

This is the song “Gogatsu no Mahō” (May’s Magic) by the vocal unit Kalafina, which disbanded in March 2019.

Many of their songs evoke a sense of nostalgia, and this track fully conveys that wistful world.

The melody line is particularly beautiful, and their harmonies are compelling.

Although this video features a piano arrangement, the beauty still comes through clearly.
