The deep, rich bass, along with the wide vocal range and captivating voice, draws me in without realizing it.

It’s too good to just have on in the background.

I feel like I’d end up listening intently, tears in my eyes.

How should I put it—does it feel like the song is telling a story? It’s as if the music soaks right into my body.

A Lover’s concertoSarah Vaughan9rank/position

It’s a heartwarming commercial that shows, with photos, how a boy’s family grows—like when his younger brother is born and when they welcome a dog.

You can feel the desire to build a cherished home where the family can live together for a long time.

The background music is an arrangement of “A Lover’s Concerto,” which was created based on “Minuet.” While “Minuet” is in 3/4 time, “A Lover’s Concerto” is in 4/4 time.

The version used in the commercial features a warm arrangement that makes use of humming, which suits the mood of the ad very well.
