HAPPY KIDS X’MAS features 25 festive classics sprinkled with super cute Japanese flavour. This heart-warming collection of kawaii Christmas hits includes recordings by Japan’s NHK Tokyo Children’s Choir, Ryoichi Fukuzawa (Winnie the Pooh, Beauty and the Beast), Noriko Namiki (Rurouni Kenshin, Hunter x Hunter) and many more choirs, anime voice actors and singers from Japan. The NHK Tokyo Children’s Choir has played an important part in popularising Japanese and overseas children’s songs in Japan and has toured the world and won various awards, including the BBC World Amateur Chorus Competition.
The collection also includes a number of Christmas tracks that are unique to Japan, such as “Awatenbou no Santa Clause” (Hasty Santa Clause), and Japanese nursery school favourite “Usagi Nohara no Christmas” (Christmas in the Rabbit Field), making this the perfect present for anyone interested in Japanese language, culture or alternative Christmas songs.
