Join us for a beautiful evening celebrating the magical worlds of Studio Ghibli, brought to life by a vibrant 12-piece ensemble blending both jazz and classical orchestral instrumentation.
We’ll journey through the music of eight classic Ghibli films, performing inventive arrangements of their iconic main themes intertwined with other musical moments from throughout each soundtrack.
