About
The concert will feature music from an animated film. The audience will also have the opportunity to listen to other music appropriate to the atmosphere of the event and original compositions created by the talented musicians of Simple Music Ensemble World, inspired by the music from favorite animated films.

Please note that the film screening is not included in the program. The main focus of the concert will be on the music: amazing, exciting, and fascinating!
"Spirited Away" is a cult work of the great Japanese storyteller Hayao Miyazaki. This is the first animated film that won the Academy Award as the best full-length cartoon. This is a story about a little girl who finds herself in a mysterious world and goes through many trials to save her parents from the charms of an evil witch.

Each cartoon by Hayao Miyazaki is a separate world with its own rules, philosophy and ideas. The magical music of the composer Joe Hisaishi, who acts as his full co-author, has become an important part of Miyazaki's artistic language. Hisaishi writes the soundtrack not after the film has already been created, but in parallel with its production. The composer, after receiving a short description of the film, on its basis composes music. Hisaishi uses all kinds of music in his works: from orchestral melodies to the advanced Japanese electronics of the eighties.

These melodies will take our listeners to the magical world, where magic and sorcery live next to reality. This is the program, that will be of interest for all the family!
