The Asian Blu-ray Guide turns 600 with Joe Hisaishi

Posted on April 04, 2009 at 17:31 by Ulrik.Tweet this

I know I've been pretty strict about (not) listing music and concert Blu-ray releases to the Guide, but just couldn't resist and just added Joe Hisaishi in Budokan - Miyazaki Anime to Tomo ni Ayunda 25 Nenkan as disc #600!
The concert features music from 25 years of Joe Hisashi's cooperation with Studio Ghibli (so it really is film related!), from Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind to Ponyo and was performed last August in the Bodukan arena in Tokyo. Hisaishi was accompanied by a 200 piece orchestra and a choir of 400. The full tracklist and a review of the event is available at OSV, take a look at these YouTube videos for some amazing samples.

I meant to say get his live action film musical scores on BD also.

Ah, Joe Hisaishi is one of the best. Looking forward to this one, and hopefully someday we can get his live action film musical scores on film also.
