"Chihiro's Journey","Princess Mononoke","Kiki the Little Witch","The Moving Castle","My Neighbor Totoro","Castle in the Sky"... all these masterpieces of Japanese animation have several points in common. They were all produced by the legendary Studio Ghibli, and they were all directed by the indisputable Hayao Miyazaki. But that's not all: behind the music of all these successful animated films is one of the greatest composers of his generation, Joe Hisaishi.
Composer, conductor, pianist and lyricist, Joe Hisaishi has composed the music for most of Studio Ghibli's films, including the forthcoming " The Boy and the Heron ".
