    Flowers Will Bloom (花は咲) (Hana wa Saku)

    Composer: Yoko Kanno
    Arranger: Yoshihiro Koseki


    The March 2011 earthquake and tsunami brought an unprecedented scale of damage to northeastern Japan. 花は咲, or Hana wa Saku, or Flowers Will Bloom, was composed by Yoko Kanno to support recovery in disaster-hit areas. In 2021, a multilingual version of the song was created, which is sung in 11 languages.

    Yoko Kanno (菅野 よう子 Kanno Yōko, born March 18, 1963) is a Japanese composer, arranger and musician best known for her work on the soundtracks on anime films, television series, live-action films, video games, and advertisements. She was born in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. Featuring lyrics by Sendai film director Shunji Iwa, the song features notable natives from the affected areas of Fukushima, Miyagi, and Iwate.
