Graduated from a music school / 21 years of piano experienceSatomi
I began playing the piano at the age of four and spent six years at a conservatory, focusing mainly on classical music while honing my skills. In addition to solo performance, I studied extensively in chamber music and two-piano repertoire, and I had the opportunity to perform twice on stage as a soloist in piano concertos. While not to the same extent as classical, I also learned jazz and pop through practical performance. I was active as a pianist in various settings, including instrumental and vocal/choral accompaniment, performance assistance for other departments, and recording sessions. Beyond the piano, I devoted five years to the trombone in a wind ensemble. I hope to draw on these experiences to share the charm of music with many people.

Mulan

Reflection

Reflection (Mulan)

Reflection

A song befitting a film that won the Annie Award, often called the Oscars of animation.

The scene where she sings alone in the rain, lamenting that the version of herself the world and her family expect isn’t her true self, is especially memorable.

The bittersweet emotion is expressed in both the lyrics and the rhythm.

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

My wish

My Wish (The Hunchback of Notre Dame)

My wish

A song in which Quasimodo, confined to the church’s bell tower because of his illness, sings of his desire to venture into the outside world.

While The Hunchback of Notre Dame tends to feature somewhat darker pieces, this song, though maintaining its rich character by blending the orchestra with the sound of bells, evokes an image of bright light.

Enchanted

Stay by my side.

“So Close” Japanese version (w/subs and translation) from Enchanted

Stay by my side.

The song used in the ballroom scene of the film Enchanted.

Although not widely known, it was nominated for an Academy Award along with the other songs.

It’s a piece that seems to convey the bittersweet feelings when the heroine from a fairy-tale world and Robert from the real world dance to it.

Pocahontas

Colors of the Wind

Colors of the Wind (Pocahontas)

Colors of the Wind

A song featured within the story of Pocahontas, daughter of the Powhatan tribe.

Pocahontas was actually based on a real Native American woman named Pocahontas.

It was Disney’s first film based on a real person, and unusually, it does not end in a happy ending.

The song and story convey that the plants and animals in the world you don’t know—or don’t try to know—also have life, each with its own colors.

It’s a quintessentially Disney piece and narrative that values the natural world.

Snow White

Hi-ho

Heigh-Ho (Snow White)

Hi-ho

A song from the world’s first feature-length animated film, Snow White, released in 1937.

In the movie, the seven dwarfs, each with a unique personality, sing it while working at their job of mining diamonds.

The scene where they cheerfully sing while whistling is incredibly cute.

They also sing this song on their way home after finishing work.

The phrase “Hi-Ho” can mean things like “oh well” or “phew,” and it conveys the feeling of being pleasantly tired after finishing a job they enjoy.

The Little Mermaid

Poor People

Poor Unfortunate Souls (The Little Mermaid)

Poor People

A song that beguiles Ariel with the promise, “I’ve saved those poor unfortunate souls—if you rely on me, you’ll find relief.” Its charm lies in the skillful lyrics that use gentle words to keep troubled Ariel in the dark while subtly revealing the singer’s wickedness to the audience.

It's a Small World

Small World

Small World — Song: AI Kiritan (with lyrics)

Small World

How about “It’s a Small World,” a song imbued with the message “Let’s all get along”? It was written as the theme song for the Disneyland attraction It’s a Small World.

The lyrics are heartwarming, and its mid-tempo feel is sure to lift your spirits.

With many sustained notes, it’s also fun to enjoy long vocal lines.

That makes it perfect for choral singing, and thanks to its thematic lyrics, it would pair well with performances like school plays or recitals.
