九州旅客鐵道喺2011年九州新幹線全線開通嗰陣，開始喺博多車站以外嘅新幹線車站導入由作曲家向谷實作曲嘅出車音樂，當中熊本車站同埋鹿兒島中央車站嘅出車音樂（同埋車內音樂）更取材自地方特色節日。向谷實為咗九州新幹線所創作嘅車內音樂同埋出車音樂更成為九州新幹線嘅一大特色。
When the Kyushu Railway Railway opened its entire line in 2011, the Kyushu Railway began to introduce music composed by composer Minoru Mukaiya at Shinkansen stations other than Hakata Station, and the music (and in-car music) from Kumamoto Station and Kagoshima-Chuo Station was based on local festivals. Minoru Mukai's in-car music and out-of-car music for the Kyushu Shinkansen have become a major feature of the Kyushu Shinkansen.
