Product Description
Kugayama is a gifted music teacher, but a man with little ambition or desire. Born to a wealthy and prominent family, Kugayama passes his days simply going through the motions and existing. When ex-student, Azuma Tanaka, requests his help in studying for a prestigious music school's entrance exam, his budding youth and enthusiasm invoke a passion in Kugayama that he has never experienced before.

5 out of 5 stars An expressive and bittersweet love story.   April 3, 2007
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I love this mangaka's works. Solfege is another example of her marvellous story telling skill. It is an engrossing read, with beautifully flushed out and realistic characters, good dialogue and a charming yet bittersweet plot. As it's her trademark, the plot is laced with her wry sense of humour and her characters are imperfect, their lifes filled with loss and regrets. Yet redemption is just on the horizon too. The teacher and student relationship here is not the usual Yaoi type but well explored, realistic and strangely touching. As I am quite a "sap" I do wish the ending could have been more dramatic. On the other hand a "melodrama ending" would not have suited the flow of the events, rendering the storyline unrealistic. Solfege is one fine composition indeed.
