Movie 00 Kalafina ARIA Live

[@ManpeiXT]

何度も聴きたくなるARIA。MAYAの声はHIKARUの声よりも高くはないんだろうけど空間を穿つような広がり方が凄いなと思う。これだけの声量でもまだ余裕がありそうな。フルパワーでだしたらどれだけ出るんだろう。 一方でHIKARUの声もこの時期は金属的な響きでなおかつ声量が凄いからこの四人の中でも支配的なボーカル。恐らくはこの頃のKalafinaの時代が最強なのかな。

[@sizuku40]

やっぱりこの頃のARIAに戻ってきてしまう。　大サビのMAYAのガツンと来る感じだったり4人だからこその重なり、当時のいい意味での粗削りなとこ、すべてが完璧に重なってる気がする。。。

[@roycejohnsolquillo]

To be honest, the Fictionjunction version is the best for me. Instrumental-wise, Yuki Kajiura and the band did so much better. Obawo’s percussions made it so much better also. But I have to admit that I miss Hikaru and Wakana’s voice of this era. This is their best era to be honest.

[@ぽよ-z5h2j]

この頃のひかるちゃん最高ですよね。 声の出し方とかライブやり過ぎとか色々あったと思いますが…特に後半は見てて辛かったです

[@MorioDaichi]

もともとHikaruさんの歌い方が喉を酷使するような感じだったのと、「Destination unknown」のような迫力を求める曲にHikaruさんがメインボーカルに採用される事が多かったので、声帯の負担が激しいものになっていたからだと思います。 80年台のスーパーアイドルの松田聖子さんもやはり同じような感じで、デビュー時の歌い方が途中でできなくなり、いわゆる「キャンディーボイス」の歌い方に変えていったのと被るような気がします。 でも最後のLIVEの「oblivious」は声楽的な歌い方に切り替えて、綺麗な声を出せるようになれて良かったと思います。

[@ぴくぴく人参]

個人的にはMagiaあたりで声破壊されたと思っている

[@TheSeeking2know]

@@MorioDaichi You're right about Hikaru depending on the throat a bit for belting power. Not singing from below. Just watch the posture in this song during the belting phases. Compare how Hikaru and Maya stood when belting the chorus passage.

[@yutakamatsuta3674]

このＬｉｖｅの「ＡＲＩＡ」が一番好きです。😋😋

[@TheSeeking2know]

Me too. This is the original with fuller live vocals.

[@TheSeeking2know]

I love the way Maya raises her right hand high when she's going for those high notes (especially when Belting), instead of raising her head up. That's good vocal technique there. The raised hand opens up her ribcage and allows the lungs to give her solid breath support and she avoid tension in the throat

I became a fan of Kalafina just recently and the first time I heard this song was during their 10th anniversary concert. I thought it was great but this, with Maya, holy shirt it was mind-blowing!!! I couldn't stop my goosebumps!!!

[@TheSeeking2know]

Next level right here. Their voices were all still young in this performance and Maya helped to complete the live harmonies much more fully. There was much less reliance on the recorded background vocals. There were a bunch of layered vocals and dual harmonies that she performed, providing a medium low range that freed Keiko to rest at times, and her belted section showed her power with a comparable tone to Hikaru's.

[@greenady]

Maya is like hibrid of Hikaru and Keiko

[@TheSeeking2know]

[@edyeoliveira4176]

This is the best ARIA live performance for me, no matter how many other performances of Hikaru, Keiko and Wakana I see, this one live with Maya is the most powerful of them all. I never want to be unfair to the 3 goddesses, but I have to be honest, Maya's voice makes a lot of difference in this song, the others' voices were also very impactful at that time... It would be a dream to see what Sprinter and Oblivious were like with this 4-woman lineup, but I know that will never happen, I have to be thankful for having this performance preserved... Maybe we can see ARIA from a new perspective with FictionJunction which is a 4 person formation, it all depends on master Kajiura.

[@clown-chan989]

ARIA with FictionJunction member is my dream! Especially with Yuriko Kaida filling those fleeting high notes.

[@edyeoliveira4176]

@@edyeoliveira4176 We can only hope 🤞

[@TheSeeking2know]

I am with you on this though I also feel that the stripped-down version with the 3 singers is well done too. This, as you said, is the ultimate version. Maya just brings a versatility and colour to the vocals (especially completing 3 part harmonies with Wakana-Keiko or Keiko-Hikaru) at different times which just sound so sweet and full. And allowing both Keiko and Wakana to do the dancing kajiurago bridge, while Maya could do the low counterpoint to Hikaru's melody in that section. Overall a fuller performance with their quite young and strong voices.

[@transranpo]

i was never into kalafina until after they disbanded, and i cant seem to find many performances with maya. as much as i love the three of them, there's just something about her belting voice that is just so magical (but like the same goes to all of them lmao)

[@TheSeeking2know]

We are in the same boat! I totally agree with you. I also discovered Kalafina post-disbanding, through a KZbin recommendation to their 10th Anniversary Budokan llve, and the mystical "Ring Your Bell" intro caught me and bound me (they sounded like angels) even though I could never imagine watching a 2-hour-plus KZbin video. I watched it all through! I have become partially obsessed with hearing Maya sing live from this period. Her tone and obviously punching below her maximum high pitch and power (it seemed oddly easy for her) belting the same chorus part as Hikaru, made me excited to hear more of her. What I even noticed is that Keiko amplified her volume for her harmony low notes when singing with Maya, to match the slightly higher power of Maya's belt compared to my favourite girl, Hikaru. I am interested in Maya's head voice, her highest pitch, her low notes, dynamics. I wish we had a documentary on just her.

[@greenady]

U can see maya in other video singing Kizuato. She only doing kajiurago harmony

[@xrrgr]

it's a shame that there doesn't seem to be a live video available of her singing sprinter, a song in which she has lines

[@catsinni]

If someone would post the Sprinter LIVE of this performance we would see Maya with her full potential, but anyway Maya's career is short to be honest due to personal reason for letting her finish college first but sadly she didn't came back after making that decision ):

[@TheSeeking2know]

@@catsinni I heard that she joined a dance group or something. It's similar to Kawashima Yuuka (founding member of Perfume) who left the group for school and then tried multiple times to come back into entertainment with series of relative failures, while the group went on to become one of the biggest in Japan .

Me too... I also thought it was Hikaru... anyway, they both are powerful!

[@xrrgr]

Same! It’s just Maya’s doesn’t have the “metallic” element Hikaru’s voice has - it’s softer. I’d say her voice is like a mixture of Wakana’s and Hikaru’s.

[@TheSeeking2know]

They have similar tomes. I think she has just a teeny bit more power than Hikaru and a slightly richer low range, though Hikaru is my favorite. I saw this because she covered some mid-low notes (that gave Keiko rest at some points) and she holds her mike further away from her mouth almost all through the performance.

[@IriaTHaze]

That might be because Hikaru took that part after Maya left?

It's not very clear if she left for school, yes, but it is confirmed that Maya's decision was at the behest of her father. He wanted his daughter to have a different career. In Japan, parents, especially fathers, have a lot of say in their children's lives. It's highly unlikely that Maya will ever perform with Kalafina again.

[@sophiawu3313]

I don't think Hikaru's voice will come back. But it's really not a problem, I already get used to it. Her vocal cord is changing while she is getting older, therefore she has to change her way to sing. And so does Wakana. Besides, Kalafina has TOO MUCH work for lives, if Hikaru is still using her previous way to sing, it will hurt more.

[@4evaism]

What exactly happened to her voice? I mean, I know she sounds quite different now, if not worse. Did she hurt her throat or something? Is it because of the extensive live shows, so much that it exhausted her voice, or anything?

[@emmad3567]

I think it's a combination of neverending live shows and work (especially from 2014-on as they become more popular) and Hikaru's vocal cords changing as she gets older, as the person below said. In addition, Hikaru has frequently been required to strain her voice in songs by singing to the top of her range (like in this song) or, more frequently, by lowering it just barely above breakage (a la Magia)... It may just be that her voice isn't meant to do that all the time, even if it sounds really cool. She also has said that it takes a lot for her to take care of her voice, she takes a lot of steps to protect it.

[@huntress44]

honestly I think Hikaru's voice sounds fine despite changes. It's Wakana's loss of breath and difficulty in singing that worries me recently. I always hear her gasping/hiccup sound both in live & recorded.

[@calebc.4343]

I don’t think that there’s nearly as much to worry about with Hikaru, or Wakana, at this point in comparison to when you all posted this. Vocally Hikaru has changed pretty drastically - my personally most audible times hearing this would include sitting down on the 9+ONE and 10th Anni concert videos and focusing only on drastic requirements, like her falsettos in the 9+1 Oblivious and the 10th Anni’s Lirica. However, I don’t think anyone yet knows if Hikaru got what’s often labeled “the singer’s surgery” as Wakana has. (I will say the surgery helped her a nice amount but oh my God she STILL CANNOT BREATHE. It’s just too much of a habit at this point although it’s noticeably better in comparison to, say, Red Moon era.)
