The Unofficial Yuri Kasahara Anime Compilation Album

The name of Yuri Kasahara is probably unknown to most anime and anime music fans, but I'm quite certain her voice isn't. She can be heard in anime series such as Gurren Lagann, Mai Otome, Madlax, Noir, Persona Trinity Soul, Black Cat... So, here's an album I put together with all of her anime related songs.

Yuri Kasahara (or Yuri Shinada) is one of Japan's best known opera singers. She has performed in a multitude of operas, such as in "The Magic Flute" by Mozart (playing The Queen of The Night) or "La Traviata" by Verdi. She has also sung over 100 songs in commercial and has composed music and written lyrics for a number of plays and operas.

For her anime related performances, she has worked with two of the best anime composers out there: Yuki Kajiura and Taku Iwasaki. The songs they have created together are some of my favorite anime songs of all-time. Her incredible voice is one of the best, if not the best I have ever heard in any anime related music. Songs such as Materialise, Places of the Holy, Salva Nos, ACCETTAMI, Der Mond zeigt mir meine eigene Gestalt or Libera me from Hell are simply masterpieces and give me the chills everytime I listen to them. That's why I urge every classical, anime or opera follower to listen to her songs... You won't be disappointed!
