Tokyo Academy Boys and Girls Choir ’79 Chorus Performance Collection<\/div>\n

<\/br><\/p>\n

This is another “private label” release that falls into the “extremely rare” category, and it’s got a little something extra that makes it worth the hunt: the involvement of Hiroshi Miyagawa. He played piano for a medley of Yamato<\/em> songs with a choir providing vocals, including the love theme from Farewell<\/em> (which has never been released on a major label). Miyagawa himself appeared on the back cover with this message:<\/p>\n

In October 1978, I received a persistent request from the Tokyo Academy Boys and Girls Choir to rewrite my Symphonic Suite Yamato<\/em> for a chorus, since many children had requested it. This record is the result of that arrangement. The piece was created by me playing the piano at a rehearsal in Kichijoji, Musashino City, under the guidance of conductor Kazushige Takano, and the resulting musical style is a direct reflection of that experience. Therefore, it is a unique piece not found in the score. Just as Yamato<\/em> continues to live on endlessly in search of fairy tales in space, I offer my greetings with the hope that the Tokyo Academy Boys and Girls Choir will continue to flourish.<\/span><\/p>\n
