Miyazaki's World Music performed by The Symphonians

On the evening of the concert, the magical worlds of Hayao Miyazaki will come to life in two dimensions at once. The chamber orchestra The Symphonians will perform famous soundtracks accompanied by the most vivid scenes from legendary animated films on the big screen.

Miyazaki’s films have long been classics of world animation. They are loved for their captivating stories, profound emotions, unique atmosphere, and music, without which it is impossible to imagine any of these films.

That evening, celebrated works by Joe Hisaishi and other composers, written for Spirited Away, My Neighbor Totoro, Howl’s Moving Castle, Kiki’s Delivery Service, Porco Rosso, and other legendary films, will be performed live.

Music from Miyazaki’s universe is an art form in its own right. It transports listeners to worlds where anything is possible: aboard Marco Pagot’s aircraft soaring over the Adriatic, into Kiki’s cozy bakery, the mysterious bathhouse of Yubaba, or Totoro’s enchanted forest.

Tender, lyrical themes alternate with sweeping orchestral compositions, creating an extraordinary palette of emotions equally appealing to children and adults.

The Music of Miyazaki World concert is an opportunity to rediscover beloved stories through music, hear familiar melodies performed live, and once again experience the magic that has made Miyazaki’s films beloved by millions of viewers around the world.

The Symphonians is an ensemble of professional musicians from different countries, united by a love of symphonic music and a desire to create concerts in which every program becomes a story in its own right.
