This is a song whose powerful vocals by Motohiro Hata loosen the tear ducts.

Merry Christmas, Mr. LawrenceSakamoto Ryuichi

Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence

The theme “Merry Christmas, Mr.

Lawrence” from the 1983 Japan–UK–Australia–New Zealand co-produced film Merry Christmas, Mr.

Lawrence is a masterpiece Japan is proud to share with the world and one of Ryuichi Sakamoto’s signature works, consistently ranking high in numerous charts.

With its simple yet emotionally resonant melody that continues to capture people’s hearts, the piece is also very popular among piano learners due to its playability and is frequently performed at piano recitals.

Air on the G StringJ.S.Bach

Bach “Air on the G String”

In Japan, Johann Sebastian Bach is known as the “Father of Music,” and his influence extends far beyond the realm of classical music.

A diligent musician who absorbed a wide range of styles, Bach created works that remain highly popular today across genres like jazz, rock, and club music, and are frequently quoted.

Among them, Air on the G String is especially beloved for its serene, supremely graceful melody, and it’s a classic often played at graduation ceremonies as a processional piece.

Strictly speaking, the original is the second movement, Air, from Orchestral Suite No.

3 in D major, BWV 1068.

When it was arranged for solo violin, it was discovered that the melody could be played entirely on the violin’s G string, which led to the nickname “Air on the G String.” The beauty of the melody is unchanged, so it might be nice to use the original version as well.
