[tacs222]

This piece is absolutely amazing [:

[PeterPianoXiong]

What's the name of that cellist with the glasses, relatively older, who gets all the solos? he's absolutely amazing.

[MerryGo528491]

@PeterPianoXiong Long hair or short hair?

[PeterPianoXiong]

@MerryGo528491 I think that he's sitting all the way to the left, he has a ponytail kind of hair, he's the one playing the melody part at 2:01

[ZanyPunk01]

I'm wondering if 39 people are deaf, or just idiots.

[DonMega187]

[Soulfightersu]

I love this song! It's amazingly composed, and so upbeat whilst still being dark enough to send shivers down my spine :D

[MattNathanLee]

[tvjin]

¡ Magistral !

[kajoeyang]

wow, sounds like something they would put on Final Fantasy, as like a boss battle... XD Great song... he never needs lyrics for his songs to be good, the lyrics come from the music itself... :)

[xaonrider92]

@kajoeyang YES I was thinking the same thing too! :D This would make an awesome boss music. XD

[DirtectedBy13]

i love when cellos go high up enough to sound like a violin or viola. its amazing how much you can do on the one instrument

[Kiriharuhi]

it's so hunting. very fascinating!

[TitaniaIsFalling]

[MsFyeruz]

[ABowstringsPulse64]

Imagine this as the music you listen to when link starts his fight against ganondorf in the tallest tower of ganons castle. it fits so well i cant believe noone else has commented about it yet.

[animefan294]

I wish my school could play his pieces! I've heard this song somewhere before but I don't remember where and no it wasn't from youtube......

[jameslatta1]

35 people must have called those cellos, violins.

[Azufandub]

Aaaaaabsolutely amazing!!! Wow madness

[Mister60001]

In the reactions list there isn't the: "I don't have words".

[Rohen17]

THIS IS MADNESS !!!

[Pizat19]

@Rohen17

LOL I literally was like chuckling to myself while loading the song "I bet someone is gonna say this is madness", and then

0:07

HOLY FUCK *throws headphones off to avoid overstimulation*, where is my BUCKET! Buckets.

[roselinabonnie1997]

Oh my Gosh. This is a Wonderful peice. I like how he made the emotions really come through as he was played or conducted.



[SuperZeldafangirl]

i made a youtube account just so i could like this!!!

[JihoonJKim]

Gah.

Goosebumps when Joe came in with that melody.

It's so awesome. The title is very fitting as well ^__^

[Tyronor]

That song is from Porco Rosso.

[freakjobb]

@Tyronor I realized this too. But its funny cuz I heard this song before I saw Porco Rosso. And when I was watching Porco Rosso and heard i'm like "why does this sound so familiar..... ooooohhhh!!". But yah i pretty much love this song.

[Kfal620]

My god. This is pure genius.

[MiDD606]

1:55 loving that dark melody

[shirahime23]

Another reason for me to love a cello-piano combo! Hisaishi-sensei ha totemo suteki na piano pureya desu yo neeeee! :D Cello player-tachi ha hontou ni subarashii! Kyaaaa~! Paradise! XD

[MissLinable]

I love kids playing his music. But I adore HIM and his fingers....just thanks to him, I trained piano so hard.... just can't get enough..

[kr93lv]

All of studio ghibli films will be added to studioghiblifilms(dot)com

Check it out. I am currently in the process of uploading all the films.

[XDSuperJunior]

Isn't this the battle theme for monster galaxy!? Epic -:D like a boss

[doffero]

love how the video is sped up, i wonder what the original tempo and sound was like

[RatOnAnEvilStar]

@doffero Except... it isn't. This is normal speed.

[Wolfsrain90]

@doffero This IS the normal speed. Have you never seen professional musicians perform before?

[doffero]

@Wolfsrain90 so many jerky movements! guess i need to go to a show now :D

[Wolfsrain90]

@doffero Bahah. Yep.

Playing is also as tiring as it looks, but completely worth it.

[lisalbee15]

I love 3:03 to 3:22, its like a battle! so epic hahah

[mambowe]

Wonderful!!!

[iM1nh27]

the  violin players' jerk there head alot

[enduranceish]

@iM1nh27 did you REALLY just call them violins?

[TonitheTater]

@enduranceish Bahahahah!

[TheOriginalEntz]

@enduranceish technically they are violoncelos so ... he could have meant it that way.

[14tetsuya]

@iM1nh27 there cellos dude.....-_-

[AznKnight1001]

this song screams FF Boss Fight Theme all over it :D

[IamJoeyyy]

Great song for a cellist and a pianist.

[Insayneful]

Puts so much effort into the first note :D

[darkygirl2006]

SPY on mission :D

[MegaFlyingllamas]

ohmigawd this is the battle music in monster galaxy!!! :D

[PsychedelicInk]

@MegaFlyingllamas

What da poop!?! did they get the rights to this song?

This is actually from the Hayao Miyazaki film Porco Rosso. Such a good movie!

[jedenbeen]

@PsychedelicInk Joe Hisaishi wrote this song, so obviously he already has the rights to this song.

[Insayneful]

What movie is this from???

[pins1in1my1eyes]

@Insayneful porco rosso

[TheTimonate]

BEAST

!!

[xxmikaela89xx]

when he hit the last note i started clapping violently before realizing I'm still behind my computer screen, not watching it live... wish I was there! T.T

[line8mm]

fucking love it !

[shamanking1448]

@galstafferoc but he can handle it. He's a boss.

[lollipoopism]

I can't help grinning like an idiot whenever I hear this song. I must be "mad".

[Whisper0fTheWind]

I felt the surge of energy rush through me as soon as he played the first note. He is more than legendary XD It's like if he is a musical spirit connecting us to the essence of music. Beautiful

[RainbowMich143]

Omg they don't have this on iTunes!!! HORRIFYING!!!

[dXAriseXb]

@RainbowMich143 get the torrent 

[sbnemesis77]

@RainbowMich143 I know! How dare they not have a complete set of Joe Hisaishi's work available...

[viewmoons]

@RainbowMich143 it's cuz his music is worth a lot more than 99 cents per piece!

[RainbowMich143]

I've been listening to this nonstop since Wednesday!!! I freaking love this piece!! N I play the viola =-\

[epikloveme]

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!! No music artist can top this~:)

[Clermorft]

oh dear this is making me crazy this is so unbelievable amasingly fantastic!!!

[TheWuppaego]

pähh nice

[Nightkindness]

Very well adapted to the context of the film, that's charge my self!

[CHUPAMEDIA41]

I think the tailor has to finish off making his suit. :)

[DarkenBlazer]

a true genius!

[angelstheses]

this song... joyful, gleeful happiness. great!

[HolyAvgr]

Such an aggresive work, unlike most of his other work. Can this guy do just absolutely everything?!

Awesome.

[beccaotaku]

Was this in a game or movie soundtrack?

[3VanillaCandy3]

@beccaotaku ehmm.... I think it was come from Porco Rosso, an anime movie made by Hayao Miyazaki.

[1996ticktock]

does anyone know where to get the music sheets for this piece with 9 cellos and piano?

[TimeWaitsForNone]

Hisaishi should be nominated for a Nobel prize in music.

[xibo55]

if his music can sonehow get together to be a long story..he is another Beethoven..his music has spirit..more than any other pieces o music..but lack a kind of significance...or historicalthing..whatever..wel­l..i like it

[MilkyFactory]

I don't know if it's just me, but it seems like this track is composed of sountracks of various movies, but changed in a way that they sound creepy, and put together.

[Musicmania808]

2:22 ...evil stare

[Amarynthine]

Influenced by Astor Piazzola?

[othellonagano]

If I was correct, this music hadn't been composed for any movies. Miyazaki just adopted this for the mad scene, taking off from a river, avoiding many bridges!

And Hisaishi has much hair on the picture of the album ;)

[Erniethecatisawesom]

@othellonagano I thought it was in Porco Rosso... Love this piece!

[galstafferoc]

I love how Hisaishi recoils from the first note. As if the awesome of his own music is too much for him to handle.

[SwagMaster9000]

@galstafferoc what an awesome comment. read it when the video was loading and then i laughed when i saw it

[mahrgt]

Joe Hisaishi, y u no stop being so fucking perfect?

[hannnahha]

The first time I listened to it 0:09 made me jump. ^_^

[samuelade]

@hannnahha The same for me =.=

[pascoett]

Awesome!!! Thank You for uploading!

[BadAssDownUnder101]

34 people though this was metal

[BadAssDownUnder101]

this is beutifull

[gerryrt]

what song is this from?

[JHMmovies]

@gerryrt nothing ^^

[flyingpenguin0422]

@gerryrt

this is a song from "Porco Rosso." Hayao Miyazaki's movie.

[kisa2k7]

The most Amazing tune on cello EVER!!!!

[Johnjy2]

@bandrunner86 lol sorry, I was being a pedantic prick. Technically a song is a composition for voice or voice and accompaniment. This would be considered a 'piece' of music.

[friskydeadman]

HOLY FUCKING SHIT BALLS.

[SorrowOrSnow]

I don't really understand how some people can dislike this song... -_-"

[Johnjy2]

@SorrowOrSnow because it's not a song.

[SorrowOrSnow]

@Johnjy2 Do you mean that in a good or bad way...?

[Johnjy2]

@SorrowOrSnow haha sorry for not being clear. My comment was neither positive or negative, I merely wanted to state that this is a 'piece' of music rather than a 'song'.

[assortedlemon]

Hisaishi's face at 3:46 is just priceless.

..what an incredible piece. <3

[digimon916]

the guys on the cellos are badass too. such good timing...

[TheJtj18]

some mad cello skillz!!

[tuanonnasibuca]

hisaishi is a genius. he played so fast that sometimes i couldn't see his fingers...

[KevinVang1000]

Is there a music sheet for this so that I can download this for free?

[drastisgr]

beautiful

[Danacanda]

Its so good its maddening!!!

[sadata]

You gotta love his smile :)

[renopla]

34 people are in madness.

[solidus0101]

@renopla

Don't you mean that 3252 people have finally found the true madness ?

[ColorfulDicks]

joe hisaishit

[Rohen17]

hisaishi isn't just playing it, he's living it  3:47

[eui30]

Joe hisaishi with Nine cellos. *gasp*

THIS IS MADNESS.

*Pushes man to void*

:D

[eui30]

Joe Hisaishi with nine cellos.

THIS IS MADNESS.

*push man to the void*

[jennieme]

i would love for him to be my piano mentor

[Nastasia9708]

@freakystyley4000 it is kind of true, but it's also pretty stupid that you would compare such an amazing piece of music with a drug addict.....

[rachlouise3]

Also, this vid has some good editing.

Fave part: 2:30-2:33

[rachlouise3]

Sounds like something from Professor Layton.

Kinda like a puzzle battle? :)

[kur00kami]

@rachlouise3 It really does! I thought that as soon as it started xD

[syareeves]

Simply Captivating. Joe Hisaishi + a piano + 9 cellos and THIS HAPPENS!!

[chiemay0206]

I have heard this song before in the beginning of an American movie or serie, but don't remember which one (not porco rosso, I have never seen that one)

[JohnsayHD]

i was supposed to concentrate on homework while suddenly my concentration went to this song.

[drchepa]

porco rosso's soundtrack? by the way i think miyazaki will do porco rosso 2.....

[anamajey]

omg f cking perfect hisaishi my god!

[the12aven]

Does any one have the sheet music for the piano for this? i'de love to give it a go! :D

[Walauase]

This is soo good >_<

[angiezze]

Magnifique !

[sorfobos]

reminds me of ligeti, i wish i was half as crazy/talented as them

[skyask23]

Is he the guy with the squinty eyes?.... o wait....

[Anike16]

in the beginning, i was kinda scared, i mean litterally. so much emotion in that piano.

[XayasukiX]

dude so epic in the beginning

[JesseJohnWilsonMusic]

Beastly...

[narutofan2122z]

lol Soul eater

[freakystyley4000]

This song will perfectly accompany Charlie Sheen's decent into madness.

[PureS0u1]

@freakystyley4000 True that.

[Alexlenewmenestrel]

Hisaishi is sooo amaziiing !
