感谢-平原绫香

平原绫香(Ayaka Hirahara)1984年5月9日出生于东京，是日本Dream Music旗下的一名流行歌手。她父亲Makoto Hirahara是一位萨克斯演奏家，祖父Tsutomu Hirahara是一位喇叭乐手，她的姐姐Aika Hirahara也是一位歌手，所以可以说平原绫香从小就是受着音乐的熏陶长大的。

平原绫香从6岁开始就一直在松山芭蕾舞团学习古典芭蕾和钢琴，一直学了11年。她13岁时开始吹奏萨克斯，后来在Senzoku Gakuen高中音乐科正式学习吹奏萨克斯，也曾在学校的文化庆典上登台主演了舞台剧《天使情歌2》。最后，平原绫香在Senzoku Gakuen音乐学院专攻爵士乐的萨克斯。

平原绫香于2003年12月17日的发布首张唱片《Jupiter》，一经推出就创下了70多万张的超高销售量，成为日本2004年最被看好的女歌手之一。2006年她为PS2游戏Ōkami演唱了结尾曲，还为动画The Story of Saiunkoku演唱了开场曲。

Her father Makoto Hirahara is a saxophone player, grandfather Tsutomu Hirahara was a trumpet player, and her older sister Aika Hirahara is a singer. From the age of 6, she belonged to The Matsuyama Ballet for 11 years. She started playing saxophone when she was 13 years old, then learned classical saxophone at Senzoku Gakuen High School.
