parting snowYutaka Yamakawa
Among Yutaka Yamakawa’s songs, the especially melancholic masterpiece “Wakare Yuki.” This piece falls on the wider side in terms of vocal range for his repertoire.
However, it does not demand a broad range throughout the entire song.
The only truly high section comes at the end of the chorus; the rest centers on the mid to low register.
The use of kobushi (ornamental scoops common in enka) is also less frequent than in typical enka, and the tempo is relaxed, so despite the wide range, it remains a relatively easy enka song to sing.
Farewell at a Rain-Soaked InnYutaka Yamakawa
Wakare no Shigure Yado, the song featured on the B-side of Yutaka Yamakawa’s renowned classic Aniki, is beloved among fans as a hidden gem.
Among Yamakawa’s works, it especially stands out for its expressive vocals.
While the range isn’t particularly wide, it features techniques such as kobushi embellished with hiccup-like voice flips and an opening delivered with a shout-like intensity.
However, the tempo is very slow and there are a fair number of rests, allowing ample time to prepare for the challenging spots.
Overall, it can be considered a relatively easy song to sing.
