Joe Hisaishi and La mer on Aug 24th at Hollywood Bowl

The multi-talented Joe Hisaishi has composed more than 100 film scores and is best known as the musical mind behind nearly all of famed Japanese animation director Hayao Miyazaki’s films with Studio Ghibli. Hisaishi leads the Los Angeles Philharmonic in selections of his own music—including his evocative scores for landmark anime films Howl’s Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke—as well as Debussy’s sea-inspired, Impressionistic La mer.
