Cello solo performed by Hiroshi Kondo, the top cellist of Osaka Philharmonic Orchestra. Rich, beautiful and passionate...

Miyazaki Hayao created the anime, but Hisaishi Joe gave Totoro its soul.

Miyazaki gave it its soul.

So much feeling, so much beauty, so much perfection in one song... By just closing your eyes, you can feel the wind blowing on your skin. You know you have entered the realm of peace where reality does not matter anymore... Thanks Joe for always reminding me that I shouldn't give up on playing piano no matter how hard it is. It's only been 5 months, but I can see myself improving each day. One day I want to be as good as you, or even better! :D

[@shamiir1812]

Be better than your yesterday's self, that's all that matters.

[@naureenghani6236]

All my late-night studies consist of Joe Hisaishi playlists, his music is so beautiful

[@the_randmon]

[@ewgubs]

+1 ×ω×

[@emyflora5735]

Me too *-*

[@duelbuster123]

me too! everytime I got stressed this helps a lot!

[@chongjhuanghung6665]

And I'm sure you score well because of listening to his music!

[@LuckyNumber48]

The passion is just pouring out... their mind, body and soul screams for the love of this craft... for the true passion of music. Beautiful.

[@aSKYLITdriveFAN27]

I swear every time I hear one of Joe Hisaishi's compositions I get shivers and goosebumps. This man is such a genius.

[@seemakakade1432]

man! never had I ever literally felt like someone's pulling the strings of my heart but this one did.. One look at Joe Hisaishi's face when he's playing piano and you can tell that every music he makes comes straight from his heart..

[@xiao8825]

Seema Kakade why THIS coment is not viral?

[@rawrl2121]

When Joe Hisaishi plays the piano, it's apparent that he's in his own world, that nothing can take him away from it. If only everyone has the same passion he has, imagine how wonderful everything would be.

[@nicolezhang8116]

Joe Hisaishi and Hayao Miyazaki= Holy Fucking Shit my eyes and ears

[@Asveest]

oh yeah!

[@AlexZagorodniuk]

couldn't say better!

[@Danmashinigamikuro]

"Hayao Miyazaki and Joe Hisaishi"* then, or "my ears and my eyes"*

[@cwhittamoe]

if ever i hear someone mention joe hisaishi.i know they are a friend to me :)

[@philippaltmann187]

I mention Joe hisaishi

[@isatravan2697]

magnifique interprétation Totoro je l'ai regardé tellement de fois merci 😍

[@Chloe3610]

Japanese cartoon soundtracks are so beautiful it makes me cry wtf

[@cylistriangle3942]

*anime

[@AvergeJojo]

Cylis Triangle anime *is* Japanese cartoons

[@siegwulfVODS]

Anime is just the Japanese word for Animation. Cartoons are animation.

[@yashiroisana8197]

Most anime fans don't like it when people call anime cartoons. Anime fans like to use the term anime instead of cartoons

[@siegwulfVODS]

I understand that. But anime is literally the Japanese word for Animation. Cartoons are a type of animation.

[@이버블-c9c]

the warmth, genuine respect and chemistry between musicians is so touching

[@AnaxorRehtsE]

I love all his compositions, and particularly this one.

[@rasaecnai]

I always come back to this video. It makes me see the world in a good light. I always thought, "Hey no matter how bad it gets, music like this exist in the world and life is still worth living if only to experience such beauty and wonder."

[@Ootori_sama]

1:28 That lady in the background is in the zone

[@orchidmusic3556]

+hadomaru1121 I was wondering if anyone else noticed that :)) it looks like she's just realising how amazing her life is, and i dont blame her!

[@パッ-r2l]

And the boy with glasses beside her so handsome lmao

[@Dylan_Thomas1]

She KNOWS.

[@schilll]

Haha, beautiful

[@oxymoron9097]

You get a second hand high when you’re in the presence of the great Hisaishi 😂

[@OriginalJedisheep]

The things that Joe Hisaishi creates are simply divine. No words can truly explain the majesty of his creations. Hisaishi is far and away one of the best composers of our time.

[@derekcurtis9999]

watching Joe get into the music is so awesome to watch

[@forknife326]

I absolutely adore the main celloist, such passion I can feel every time I come back to this song

[@mallowman2794]

Who ever could dislike this video doesn't know beauty or just can't put their mind around how amazing this music is

[@bazbuco]

this melody somehow gives me so much strength while also nurturing these deep feelings of compassion i forgot i had. i can only hope that someday my own music will hold the same power.

[@AndreaAPL]

Thanks Joe Hisaishi to show us how beautiful the world is with your music.

[@aniguydude55]

3:23 No beat drop can come close to the beauty of the Classical transition.

[@samuelantoncich3761]

That’s not a beat drop

[@lucasduroyon3322]

L’un des plus beau OST, magnifique.

[@csapsailalasapa746]

14 years and I'm still here

[@Lyedel]

This version is simply the best on youtube.

[@Lesaff4mes]

Heals my soul

[@marbletesoro4042]

I rarely comment... But I've been really overwhelmed over this past few months. I've been overthinking a loot..and hard. Thank you so much for this wonderful music. I'm easing through another day today.

[@LuckyNumber48]

Defiantly the best version of this! I love it.

[@tyrison]

Wow. The guy playing the piano in this is amazing...he can pull forth such a beautiful voice from his cello. Simply, and confoundingly, amazing.

[@AlexisXen]

A sense of carthasis purged me and all my childhood memories which were dominated by the colorful lives of each and every ghibli movie started to surface. I cried

[@leesoyoung26]

I absolutely LOVE the sound of a cello. piano+cello=heaven. Absolutely amazing composition by joe hisaishi. his work is just so calming and leaves you in a different world everytime one of his songs play

[@Lylley]

Oh, not only is Joe Hisaishi's music wonderful, he seems also to be a very likeable man! How he's beaming all over the face... he loves what he does, that's obvious. And that makes me enjoy his music even more.

[@akaibake7999]

Es una composición muy hermosa. Trae un sentimiento único, puro y muy profundo. Me envuelve totalmente

[@creativoartislas986]

Melodia envolvente y conmovedora... experiencia auditiva gratificante que despierta el alma sensible de nuestra infancia ....gracias joe.

[@emrys229]

This is absolutely amazing. I also love it when Laura Shigihara sings this song. You have to hear it. Especially when her friend adds her violin to it. It just... The feels.

[@Carpythesharky]

I like watching the body language and facial expressions on the player's faces. Amazing how much emotion comes out of their body language - as well as from their music.

[@sombersquibble8675]

Seeing just how passionate they are in their work is inspiring. Music grants a means of fully expressing your emotions and creating something beautiful out of it; that becomes very clear here. So wonderful.

[@123candydrops]

so gentle with the fingers. such a beautiful song. one of my favourites in the movies totoro.

[@maddalendemars2822]

I love his little smile after every piece. His spirit and love for music really just translates so well and inspires others.

[@TheZerospin]

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL IM CRYIN

[@shinnokdosmerte8109]

Cuanta pasión en esos dos tremendos personajes, me llegaba a poner los pelos de punta,y cuanta humildad de ambas 👏 😁

[@vicktorium]

This man is my greatest hero, i swear that if I have the amazing honor of him someday I will bow in respect and admiration for the amazing melodies that literally changed my life and my way of seeing and hearing the world around me and for being the reason for wanting to be a soundtrack composer.Thank you Joe, you've changed who I am and my music, and I'm proud to say I am NOT the only one who feels this way.My name is Victor Fortes,I'm from Brazil and I'll post this comment in all Joe's videos

[@reitingquah2684]

brings tears to ma eyes

[@Fr3akyFl0ow]

if i just had such talent, or the descipline.. bringing wonderfull music to this world is the only thing i can wish for.

[@NineEyedOracle]

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. I feel this piece in my very soul. This is completely lovely.

[@marklaudens]

I am moved to tears of joy every time I experience this piece. It reaches a place deep in my soul that one can only experience and not describe by words.

[@rachaeldot]

My God, that cellist! I don't think I've ever seen such an amazing cellist before. I want to say so many things, but I won't because KZbin doesn't allow paragraphs lol. This video always puts a smile on my face. I absolutely love this particular performance. Jesus Christ they are amazing.

[@winxcat]

Joe Hisaishi is so humble! See how he immediately handed all the spotlight to the cellist even though it's HIS composition and he played amazingly in it too. That's what makes me like him. And his wonderful music.

[@herbertortiz9159]

Riveting...I couldn’t hold back the tears as these two virtuosos made pure, divine music. Thank you...

[@beewanteejunior6579]

Joe Hisaishi always will be a legend and one of my favorite composers and the Cello player is also amazing on this one.

[@darwingtoons]

People like him deserve to be were they'e at. You can genuinely see that he loves music, thus those listening apprehend and feel the same cordiality within his beautiful compositions.

[@rachaeldot]

I love the way they meet each other's eyes at the end and smiles. It's that inexplicable joy you can't explain when you create something beautiful. This just inspires me so much. Out of all the videos of this song, and all the variations, this has to be one of my top favorites. :') It's unreal to see two people create music like that, so deep into it, like no one else is there.

[@koidog100]

When Joe Hisaiah plays, he is not only showing us his music, but his world... Love this piece...

[@ilreine]

That moment the cello started playing, I got sudden eargasm!

[@wintergirl2104]

[@noctisffv13]

I've cried with this video. The most beautiful melody ever.

[@zariahmitchell4355]

This song makes me feel so emotional. Man life is so hard and everyones situation is different but, pain is pain and sadness is sadness... basically saying that no matter how we feel and how different we all are we can all feel the same sadness and same emotions

[@noparak8622]

Wow ... amazing performance the song is so sweet ... love it

[@sunnydale22]

Very beautiful, detailed performance. The admiration I have for this composer is extreme!

[@southbayjay2540]

In every performance I see, the people playing try to look as stoic as possible. In this, they really let their passion show

[@michaelmarquis8072]

this is the most beautiful song I have ever heard

[@TrueNeutralEvGenius]

[@ayybruh6023]

As someone starting out on the cello, this piece is very inspiring.

[@RickSpanish2418]

This is where music should be! It's so heart warming.

[@supensaa]

I don't care how many keys you can hit, if you don't play with emotion you're not a real musician! Simply beautiful.

I like how much love he puts in every note he plays.

[@minihodong]

I was playing this while studying, and it didn't help me at all... because in the end I kept staring at the video to watch them playing. Makes it a few times better somehow, watching the beauty of passion together with the music.

[@mangaboss1411]

Deserves the biggest round of applause

[@313x7]
