Deutsche Grammophon is delighted to announce the signing of an exclusive agreement with Joe Hisaishi, the revered Japanese composer whose work has become synonymous with the magical Studio Ghibli animations of director Hayao Miyazaki – films such as Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and My Neighbor Totoro, among many more. The first fruit of this illustrious collaboration is a joyful new version of the streaming hit “Merry-Go-Round of Life” from Studio Ghibli favourite Howl’s Moving Castle. Recorded in London by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by the composer, the track is newly arranged by Hisaishi for symphony orchestra.
