Hiyoriyama A relaxing Kocarina CD collection by Kurokuro Kurotaro, a leading Kocarina player. The Kocarina is an instrument that Mr. Kurokuro modified from a folk instrument from Hungary in Eastern Europe for the Japanese market. It is said that there are tens of thousands of enthusiasts throughout Japan, from children to adults. It is made of wood, making it a symbolic instrument for protecting the natural environment, and its soft tones bring healing. The Kocarina used on this CD is played on the "Disaster-Stricken Kocarina," made from a single red pine tree that survived the fire in front of Ishinomaki Municipal Kadonowaki Elementary School in the 2011 earthquake. About 300 of these red pine Kocarinas were presented to the children of Kadonowaki Elementary School and the children of Ishinomaki, and the event was featured on TBS's "Asa Zuba!", becoming a hot topic last autumn. This time, the bonus track includes a performance of AKB48's "Sakura no Shiori" by the children of Ishinomaki. This is a healing album that includes many famous songs that resonate with the hearts of Japanese people, such as "Hometown," "Found a Small Autumn," and "Ave Maria," performed with the beautiful tones of the Kocarina, wishing for peace.
