Some awesome news out for followers of uber-composer Joe Hisaishi. Hisaishi’s Symphonic Suite “Princess Mononoke” 2021 is determined for launch in Japan this July.
Because the title implies, it’s a “symphonic suite” version of the soundtrack to Hayao Miyazaki’s Princess Mononoke. This version, which parts eight actions, has been recorded for the first time.
The album also contains some bonus tracks, such as a version of “Merry-Tear-Round,” the main theme from Howl’s Inspiring Castle. Here’s the stout music list:
01. The Fable Of Ashitaka アシタカ記
02. TA TA RI GAMI タタリ神
03. The Run Of The West ~ Kodamas 旅立ち―西へ― ~ コダマ達
04. The Demon Strength ~ The Forest Of The Expensive God 呪われた力 ~ シシ神の森
05. Mononoke Hime もののけ姫
06. The World Of The Ineffective ~ Adagio Of Life & Demise 黄泉の世界 ~ 生と死のアダージョ
07. Ashitaka And San アシタカとサン
08. Merry-Tear-Round 2019
Asian Works 2020
09. I Might perhaps perhaps be the wind
10. II Yinglian
11. III Xpark
12. World Dreams 2021
For folk that haven’t considered Princess Mononoke (which you would possibly want to always quiet definitely resolve put up-haste), here’s the legit description:
Inflicted with a lethal curse, a younger warrior named Ashitaka sets out to the forests of the west hunting for the medication that can assign his life. Once there, he turns into inextricably entangled in a bitter fight that suits Girl Eboshi and a proud clan of folk in opposition to the woodland’s animal gods… who are led by the courageous Princess Mononoke, a younger girl raised by wolves.
