Thus spake Keiichi Sakata at this school where he is the Principal, and where Vocaloid composition is being taught as part of their music education on a trial basis.
With the assistance of teachers including Ayuchi Takahashi and guest Vocaloid producer Ashin Kuroda, the class featured in this clip produced a number of basic themes using Miku as the singing voice. Although nothing was outstanding – hardly surprising in their first-ever attempts – there was a lot of promise in what the class produced.
This is a valid and important part of humanity's cultural future, and it is good that at least one nation is utilising the capabilities now available in pursuance of tomorrow's music and its composers...
