Joe Hisaishi Full Symphonic Concert: Music from the Studio Ghibli Films of Hayao Miyazaki - London

[@ghiblipianomusic]

This music was with me everyday while I was writing my masters thesis. Couldn't have done it without you guys! 6 years later, it's still my favorite soundtrack for work.

[@walkmetothemoon]

I still can't believe I'm going to a Joe Hisaishi concert (in Paris). I'm 18, turning 19 in January, and I grew up with Studio Ghibli movies, and therefore with Joe Hisaishi's music. A dream that is about to come true, thank you for sharing this concert !

[@walkmetothemoon]

That's amazing, thanks for sharing your feelings! Truly a dream, hope you can enjoy looking forward to it and then the concert itself. Glad this video brought you a bit closer to that! And happy birthday in advance

A shout out to the performers who were the BBC Concert Orchestra led by Nathaniel Anderson-Frank, and who played the violin solo in Mother's Broom. The soprano soloists were Ella Taylor and Grace Davidson. The mandolin player was Simon Mayor. The choir was Crouch End Festival Chorus.

Great information, thanks a lot for sharing it. I had already credited the BBC Concert Orchestra and the Crouch End Festival Chorus in the description, but not the soloists/performers. I've added their names now as well.

[@ご飯を盛る人]

When Mera-san, the original singer, was recording this with Joe Hisaishi, he was told by Director Miyazaki, that this was a feeling of Ashitaka towards San, so he shouldn’t be “singing.”

They were at the Paris concert too and it was so beautiful. I'm glad I can watch them again here!

Oh my gush, that Opera singer he sang both Mononoke/Ponyo so great! Compared to all Mononoke singers from all of the world, his voice, pronunciation, and the way he sang is the best closest to Mr. Yoshinori Nera. So, my vote for him!

[@BlackStar_Video_Creator]

molto bello, ma non è paragonabile alla versione del 25° anniversario, che secondo me rimane imbattibile (very nice, but it doesn't compare to the 25th anniversary version, which in my opinion remains unbeatable)

I got tickets for next year concert!! So is it okay to record? Or you mostly have to record hiding? Of course I want to enjoy it peacefully but I want to have some memories of it. So just wondering if it's allowed or just based on the venue

[@walkmetothemoon]

I would say it depends on the venue. In this case, there were plenty of people recording very explicitly and it was not an issue. But definitely check with your venue. Also the great thing about KZbin is that it recognises the music and the copyright owner can remove the video if they wish. Even if they don't, any revenue generated by the video goes to the copyright owner (and to KZbin), so that makes it awesome for the author as well, as the can benefit from the views and still have the choice to remove it if they want to.
