CD Reviews

"Hayao Miyazaki's acclaimed anime films with scores by Joe H

J. Lovins | Missouri-USA | 10/14/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Milan Records and Hayao Miyazaki presents two Joe Hisaishi film scores "Princess Mononoke" (1997) and "Spirited Away"(2001)...would put this music right up there with "Star Wars" and "Lord of the Rings"...the tracks are as good or better than John Williams, James Horner, Jerry Goldsmith or Howard Shore, each cue expressing the story-line with inner-feelings that give the characters life.

Both albums have inclusive symphonic clarity with melodic to dynamic arrangements that make this an original experience in the acclaimed Anime films...Hisaishi give us another insight to the opening track "THE LEGEND OF ASHITAKA" from "Princess Mononoke" over-lapping blending counterpoints with each measure, the result is a wonderful and outstanding performance...another highlight "SEN'S COURAGE" from "Spirited Away" stirring your emotions once again as you recall each epic animated film performed by the New Japan Philharmonic Orchestra and the power-mood-setting score by composer, arranger and producer...JOE HISAISHI!

(4.5 stars) It is really good

METAzraeL | NV | 12/01/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"the music will bring you back to the scenes in the movies, and are as moving and beautiful on cd as they are in the films. If you've seen the movies, and I figure you have since you're looking at this, then you will know the overall themes and feelings that the movies portray. The Princess Mononoke cd has more of a heavier, ominous sound to it, whereas Spirited Away is lonely and thoughtful. I only took off the half star because many of the songs are rather short. They could have easily been expanded or stretched out. But then again, you don't have to listen to the same notes for ten minutes, so it keeps it fresh."

Wonderful

"I prefer the music from Spirited Away but both pieces are absolutely wonderful. The sound quality and the composition are both glorious, there's little else to say. I can listen to this for hours and hours and always hear something new. Well worth the money, especially considering the surprising cost of his other albums. Go for it."
