Yes, she voices Yuki from Haruhi Suzumiya. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minori_Chihara ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My next recommendations are mostly singers who sang for KEY visual novel games, because the composers write beautiful music and they pick really good vocalists for the songs. My favourite being Lia. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lia_%28singer%29 Here's a list of stuff she sang that I loved. Theme Song from Clannad After Story
Tori No Uta, theme song from Air
Aozora, insert song for Air. Very sad song.
Karma, from Lia's own album, composed by Jun Maeda who composed the Clannad After Story theme song, along with composing various tracks from Clannad, Kanon and Air game (and subsquently Anime) soundtracks. Personally, while Lia's solo work from her albums is nice, her best vocal tracks tend to be the ones composed by Key composers like Maeda.
Natsukage, vocal arrange track from Air.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another singer I liked who did songs for Key is Riya from Eufonius. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riya Here's her list of songs I liked. Mag Mell from Clannad season 1 opening
The Tiny Palm of Your Hand, insert song for final episode of Clannad After Story
Sunbeams Streaming Through the Leaves, vocal arrangment of Ushio theme from Clannad After Story.
The Girl's Fantasy, vocal arrangement of Fantasy from Clannad soundtrack.
Narcissu, theme song from Doujin visual novel narcissu - side 2nd- .
Jam it back in, in the dark.  { :: ~ Air - the 1000th Summer ~ :: } :: That sea went on forever, into the blue distance :: * That road went on forever, continuing straight ahead * ~ : Summer comes again, shining silver : ~ : When I close my eyes, suddenly I can see that day's blue sky : |

Well, I am a fan of the Haruhi series thanks to the anime, so yes I do recommend it. However, season 1 of the anime was aired out of chronologial order on purpose, and they are "re airing" season 1 right now with new episodes inserted between certain episodes of season 1. You really need to wiki it a bit to get your fansubbed files in the right chronological order before watching it.
Also the Yuki song I linked was a live recording, so you can't really expect a studio quality mix there. And yeah, I have watch Air, Kanon and Clannad in anime form, and I am also prepared to play the visal novel version of them when I have time. (Kanon is 100% fan translated.) Lia was a member of Ive sound, but she now seems to release more solo works, with a Key composer occasionally contributing to her solo albums and singles. For example, the ending theme to Gunslinger Girl 2 "Doll" is also composed by Jun Maeda from Key.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's another singer! One singer I discovered that had Classical training, along with impeccable English,is a singer called Kanon. (NO relation to the anime/visual novel Kanon! She just happened to take that name as her Professional Alias, and no she did not sing any theme songs for the anime/game Kanon.) Kanon (singer) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia She did the theme song for the anime Kin’iro no Corda ~primo passo~, which is where I first heard her amazing voice. She is lesser known, so her music is more on IMEEM than on youtube. Examples: String Quartet version of the theme song from Kin’iro no Corda ~primo passo~, shows off her voice better than the single mix they used for the anime. Search the original on youtube with "Brand New Breeze - Kanon" Kanon - Brand New Breeze Featuring Stella Quintet Players Side - Free MP3 Stream on IMEEM Music Shine, a cover of a classical music that I cannot recall as I post this. ??? - Kanon - SHINE - Free MP3 Stream on IMEEM Music Here's one of her albums, a Xmas themed one called Precious. MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service tracklist: 1 Kyrie~荒野の果てに 2 都会の天使たちへ Featuring Tetsuya Bessho 3 Let It Snow Featuring Wise 4 Brand New Breeze Featuring Stella Quintet Players Side 5 You Raise Me Up 6 Carry On 7 Nella Fantasia 8 Time To Say Goodbye 9 Eternity~悠久~ Featuring 上松美香 10 O Come All Ye Faithful 11 ｷｾｷ Song Of Love Featuring Stella Quintet Players Side 12 Christmas Medley As you can see, alot of the tracks are covers of existing traditional songs or hymns. My favorite covers she did includes Nella Fantasia (She does Italian well.) Oh Come All Ye Faithful and You Raise me Up. IMPORTANT EDIT: Oh WOW! I just discovered that her latest mini album are songs from Guin Saga anime, and guess who composed the soundtrack? Uematsu from FF! The album should be out today! http://www.bgbcom.com/kanon/schedule/index.php?e=760#j Track 2 and 5 are composed by Uematsu. Track 1 and 7 are by Kanon. Found the torrent! FLAC. http://www.nyaatorrents.org/?page=torrentinfo&tid=82241 Live performance of This is My Road, Ending theme from Guin Saga. She sounds incredible LIVE. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9m...oad-live_music There's nowhere I can't reach. { :: ~ Air - the 1000th Summer ~ :: } :: That sea went on forever, into the blue distance :: * That road went on forever, continuing straight ahead * ~ : Summer comes again, shining silver : ~ : When I close my eyes, suddenly I can see that day's blue sky : |
