Tokyo RhapsodyIchiro Fujiyama

In the distant Showa era...Akira Kobayashi
When it comes to Akira Kobayashi, his expansive high notes are striking, aren’t they? Of course, that’s part of his appeal, but his charm isn’t limited to the high register.
In “Tōki Shōwa no…,” you can fully savor the depth of his low tones.
As it’s a later-career work, his high notes were starting to fade, but that makes the low range all the more pronounced.
Simply removing long sustained high notes lowers the difficulty considerably, and on top of that, this piece has relatively little contour in the vocal line, making it an easy song to sing from multiple angles.
