And his song "Fushi kandan / 風姿花伝", the theme song for the anime "Three Kingdoms" became well known because of the popularity of the anime.
Tanimura is a pioneer for the cultural interaction between Japan and China. Since 1980s, he held several concerts in China and had a great influence on local musicians. He was a professor in Shanghai Conservatory of Music, where he taught knowledge of popular music. He was also invited by Chinese government to serve as the goodwill ambassador of the Shanghai World Expo.
As an iconic singer in Japan, Tanimura participated in the "Red and White Song Battle / Kohaku" for many times.
