朗らかに (Hogaraka ni)
Released
Think about musicians that are virtuosos with their instrument, and you’re likely to come up with a pretty conventional list of players; maybe Yo-Yo Ma if you’re into classical music, Hendrix if rock is your genre of choice, Art Tatum if you have a preference for jazz. Do you know a virtuoso melodica player? Give yunovation a listen, then answer again. The melodica is a simple instrument, designed for children and often used to teach the basics of music theory, but yunovation does some impressive stuff with it. On 朗らかに (TL: cheerfully) She takes advantage of the instrument’s naturally high and toylike sound to construct some tunes that are fun and cute, but technically impressive, too.
