Why this artist or event matters in Japan
Studio Ghibli orchestral concerts hold a place in the Japanese cultural scene mixing warm memories with top-quality classical music. The songs written by Joe Hisaishi for Hayao Miyazakis films have become part of the shared music of modern Japan reaching people of all ages. The Yamagata Symphony Orchestra provides a quality local version of these famous songs giving a deep symphonic sound that connects strongly with people who live there and those who visit.
This particular show includes guest singers Azumi Inoue and Yuyu Imao. Azumi Inoue is well known for singing the songs for popular films like My Neighbor Totoro and Castle in the Sky making her live shows something special for fans of animation. The concert includes pieces and collections from Spirited Away and Howls Moving Castle showing the emotional power of a live band. The concert does not use any pictures instead focusing completely on the natural sound of the live orchestra. For someone from, outside Japan going to this concert in Yamagata gives a cultural experience that shows the true spirit of Japanese movie music in a quiet and personal environment.
