Dear friends! Finally I have another recording by my favorite contemporary composer: Joe Hisaishi. His music, especially those for orchestra, touch my heart deeply. I have been lucky to experience him in concert 2018 in Okayama/Japan and 2019 in Prague/Czech Republic.
My recommendations to get further in touch with Hisaishi‘s music:
