With writing credits for over 300 songs and 30 film scores, Kuni Murai is one of the world's preeminent modern composers. Born in Tokyo in 1945, at the crest of postwar Japan, Murai attended Keiō University, graduating and debuting as a composer in 1967. Over the next five decades, Murai would become synonymous with hits; most notably “Tsubasa Wo Kudasai” (Wings To Fly), a near-ubiquitous song published in school music books across Japan and covered by hundreds of artists around the world, and “Niji to yuki no barādo” (Ballad Of Rainbow And Snow), the latter the theme song for the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo, as well as equally impressive scores for film.
