The long-awaited first collaborative CD album by singer-songwriter Yuichi Koematsu and humming vocalist Yukie Kakubari has finally been released.

Featuring the spontaneous vocal improvisations of Yukie Kakubari / a singer who expresses emotion through wordless humming / alongside the improvised piano performances of singer-songwriter Yuichi Koematsu, who transforms the atmosphere of the moment into music, this album captures their entirely improvised live collaboration exactly as it was born in the moment.

Included are four miraculous tracks recreated and recorded from fully improvised performances originally performed live at venues such as Expo Osaka, soccer stadiums, and Makuhari Messe during musical productions and concert stages.

Woven together through Koematsu"s delicate piano tones and Kakubari"s nonverbal humming, each piece was created in the thrilling tension of one-take live improvisation. We hope you will immerse yourself in these deeply emotional soundscapes.

Many listeners also enjoy these pieces as meditation music, and the CD itself has already been receiving wonderful responses.

The album includes four highly talked-about tracks:
"When Someday Came," "May 10th," "Twilight," and "Spring and Autumn."

Music we hope will gently become part of your everyday life.

Artist Profile

  • Yukie Kakubari

    Yukie Kakubari Singer, Humming Singer Representative Director of Humming for PEACE Eight years ago, Yukie Kakubari went from being an office worker to suddenly becoming a singer. The trigger was when she was pulled in by a musician as a volunteer cleaning person. She moved to Tokyo after winning a special judge's trophy at the 26th Taiyo Canzone Italiana, the same competition won by Masashi Akikawa of A Thousand Winds fame. When he was bullied as a child, he was moved by how humming could cheer him up, and he organized an international music festival World Humming Day on October 10 every year at the EDION Peace Wing Soccer Stadium, where people all over the world sing the same humming song that comes out when they are in a good mood. The festival has become a hot topic on TV and newspaper news as a festival connecting the earth from Hiroshima that transcends language! The original song was composed with a focus on humming and charted at No. 1 in Japan on iTunes Music. She sang the national anthem at the Hiroshima CARP match, performed at the opening ceremony of the World Global Summit in front of the President of India, and has been invited to perform both in Japan and abroad. She has been invited to perform both in Japan and abroad, including singing the national anthem at the Hiroshima CARP match and performing at the opening ceremony of the World Global Summit in front of the President of India. Therefore, her dream is to create a Memorial Day of Connecting the Earth through Humming, where people can sing songs that transcend language barriers. She has been invited to give lectures at schools all over Japan and abroad as moral lessons on the joy and health benefits of humming.
