Joe Hisaishi is as much Studio Ghibli as Hayao Miyasaki without a doubt

I never cried at a live concert before. Greatest performance I have seen in my life. I wish I saw the first half. I couldn’t find parking anywhere and made it to intermission. I’m so happy I got to see the rest and was blessed to witness this performance!

I really don’t want to let go Hayao Miyazaki and Joe Hisaishi. His films make me feel so comfortable and calm. Thinking about the end of this Studio makes me cry so much… If I could, I would be the next director to continue with Miyazaki’s works❤

Funfact : he wrote the wind rises theme in one year and two months.
He wrote this one in one day.

I love this song so much. There is something both sad and hopeful about it at the same time. I saw the movie at the cinema the other day and it was so incredible. I was just in awe the whole time. And the music soundtrack played so well along with the scenes, it conveyed and elevated the emotion of each scene. I've been listening to it over and over since I was there.

The excitement and the guy screaming YES adds a lot to the video, lol

Everything you need to know & understand about life can be learned in a Stephen Sondheim musical, a Hayao Miyazaki anime, & a Joe Hisaishi composition. All geniuses.
