Okay, on to the next piece of music!


This is a band arrangement/medley from Princess Mononoke arranged by Takashi Hoshida .

Honestly, this is a gorgeously arranged piece of music. I've seen the movie, but am not familiar with the Original Soundtrack. I'm sure this arrangement does it justice though.

Stars: The Oboe- I can't get enough of the oboe parts in this piece- so beautifully performed!

Favorite Parts: I'm biased and love Horn Solos by nature (even if their players are high-maintenance and can be difficult to work with art times). So definitely the French Horn solo around 3:20- especially with the oboe part!. The main theme around 7:50 that is also played towards the beginning of the piece. It's just so dramatic. It makes me want to watch the movie again.
