Joe Hisaishi is already well known in the world, but still especially among anime fans or Hayao Miyazaki film fans.

If you have never experienced Japanese music, not Japanese modern pop music but a Japanese real composer’s music, please try Joe Hisaishi first of all.

There is a truth of talent, and existence of genius, inside Joe Hisaishi. His music brings us joy and treasure of mind, it’s just a reason to live for human.

I already recommended the album called ” Encore” as his one of the masterpieces, and here I would like to show one more great work of him.

PIANO STORY is a collection of his past works. All the songs are played by Joe Hisaishi and the orchestra.  It’s beautiful collection of fine works, and you will absolutely find a Japanese essence of music here in this album.

Joe Hisaishi’s music is a reality of Japanese blood which is still drifting in our body.
