Masterful Re-working by Mr. Hisaishi

The Symphonic Suite of Princess Mononoke by Joe Hisaishi builds on the main themes and tracks from the original soundtrack album. Performed by the City of Prague Philharmonic, Hisaishi had commented that he wanted a "European flavor" for the album, and he picked the right orchestra to deliver that feeling.

All eight suites build on main themes heard in the film, without major changes to the music itself, as a large amount of Hisaishi's work is already stylistically similar to classical and symphonic works. The City of Prague Philharmonic performed the themes beautifully and as always, recording is top notch.

Fans of the film or the original soundtrack should definitely pick this addition up.

This score is an absolute treasure. I am moved emotionally within the first minute. Each suite is very well thoughtout and a pleasure to listen to.
