“… now offering American audiences the chance to get to know Mr. Hisaishi, and discover the weird, glamorous music he brought to [Studio] Ghibli’s masterpieces. A two-night retrospective last weekend packed Carnegie Hall with local Japanimation fans and visiting tourists, all of us eager to watch Mr. Hisaishi lead the Hollywood Film Music Orchestra and Choirs through excerpts. Projected on a large screen overhead were scenes from 'Mononoke,' 'My Neighbor Totoro,' and 'Spirited Away,'and what struck me on Friday was not just the diversity of his compositions — 'Porco Rosso' features finger snapping; 'Kiki’s Delivery Service' delivers a pizzicato flying scene to rival E.T.’s arc across the moon — but also his generosity to instrumentalists, many of whom get a chance at center stage.”
