  • Is this song japanese tea's CM song ??

  • @kt02cx yes.

  • Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence is my no. 1 favorite right now, I am looking for a no. 2 love from Joe.

  • the best music after ruichi sakamoto's "Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence"... I love this very much

  • o-o He's a musical Genius, if you agree thumbs up dis comment

  • i love it how you can actually see how much fun joe has to play his songs, quite rare under professionals...

  • like a boss

  • masterpiece like every other made by Joe!

  • 240p we meet again!

  • Woah... I wish I could play piano like him.

  • this is beautiful.

  • Does anyone know if this is on an album and which one?

  • wow, this the first time i heard japanese music mixed with jazz. im amazed how good this sounds

  • 4:40 doesn't that guy's hands hurt???

  • @Shade793 You kidding! (Not trying to be mean. Sarcasm.....sorta) They practice for hours he's most likely used to it by now.

  • @Singrckshahaha I guess so... it's still kinda odd because I never saw anythng like it before

  • @Shade793 Hey. No prob. i understand.

  • @Singrckshahaha i still don't understand why he uses his hands instead of drumsticks - maybe he plays better that way?

  • @Shade793 This is just a guess, but maybe because he can control it better. He can get the right sound out of playing that way. I am not sure, but there are many techniques to playing just one instrument. Like playing the violin. You have the bow, but you can use your fingers to pluck on the strings.

  • @Shade793

    They're ethnic drums. You don't see people playing bongos with drumsticks, do you?

  • @123Kiokiou321 Yeah.... I kinda got that when the other guy responded

  • I'm sorry, but the lady playing at 4:31 always cracks me up. xD This song is truly amazing, though.

  • wow he is amazing. This sounds absolutely beautiful.

  • 東洋の神秘性を実に巧に表現している様な気がする。中国人も日本­­人も洋服を脱いで、コンクリートの景観を今すぐ破壊し、東洋人­と­しての矜恃を今すぐ取り戻そう!!!!!

  • this guy.......is my hero. he truly is the Asian Quincy Jones. haha.

  • Wow, this is the best version I've heard of this song. Hisashi's songs are one of the few that seem to get better when a Jazz beat is added. And that's saying something, since he already writes some of the best traditional classical music ever.

  • 日本の誇り。

  • お茶お茶w(゚∀゚)

  • i forgot the name of this song for while! i was so sad without....but then i found it again!!!! me=happy

  • One word came out of my mind when I heard this song..absolutely breathtaking...

  • im addicted. any good music of his, everyone?

  • @halovir hey there. there's his princess mononoke symphonic suite, bolero, new world 2006. But those are my opinions though. You should check his videos posted here by Nomyo and the rest. Just type Joe Hisaishi's name in and you'll find many. Good luck finding such other lovely pieces! :)

  • @monkey0501 THANKS!! i've checked most of his popular videos, and i still want more! my favorite is oriental wind though :) how about yours?

  • @halovir Ah... I have quite a few but my all-time favourite is definitely oriental wind. He's an awesome composer and actually, quite a numerous number of concert DVDs of his are sold online. I found some on ebay.com. You would be able to see the concert itself with better quality for the videos than of youtube I guess. Oh, more of his videos can be found... you could type in the movies or animes he composed for.

  • @halovir all of it is good!

  • @softballa13tondalayo i've checked lots of his music, and guess what, you're righttttt babyy uhyeaah!

  • Match my bad

  • Why doesn't the video math with the music........? o.O

  • I simply love it !

  • Only got one word...Beautiful!!!!

  • gosh who are those sad 12 people? this stuff is excellent

  • @777LJKLJ777 and torteredsoul1

    Actually it's 4 syllables:

    hee -sa-ee-shi (ひ さ い し) (the "a" and "i" are pronounced separately) and there is no stressed syllable... it's hard for native English speakers because all English words have one stressed syllable...

  • @pcprov

    correcting my own phonetic spelling to keep it consistent, that would be

    hee - sah - ee - shee

  • amazing man ,,,, i guss there is no humen like him ,,,, love u

  • How do you pronounce his last name?

  • @777LJKLJ777 Hee-sigh-shee

  • beautiful!!

  • Combining classical music with jazzy piano and saxophones with traditional japanese sounds has never had such elegant consequences...

  • @Olaunis You should listen to nujabes if you like that kinda stuff

  • @k3nnyinab0x yeaaaah, I listen to Nujabes. I love his work for Samurai Champloo (such a great series) and also his collabs with people like Uyama Hiroto (very jazzy), Kenichiro Nishihara, Shing... And I was very sad when I heard of his death some months ago. But thank heavens I discovered his music. Thanks to him I have been able to discover the world of jazzy hip-hop from Japan or other places.

  • @Olaunis err... I'm pretty sure that the non standart instruments are chinese....

  • @SukoSeiti OMG sorry, that´s completely true... I committed a mistake with nationalities... Hisaishi is japanese, so I was thinking in "japanese, japanese..." and I messed up with things O_oUUU I specially love the erhu solo. Lovely ^3^

  • @SukoSeiti OMG sorry, that´s completely true... I committed a mistake with nationalities... Hisaishi is japanese, so I was thinking in "japanese, japanese..." and I messed up with things O_oUUU I specially love the erhu solo. Lovely ^3^

    Or it´s not a erhu? Please correct me

  • This is like my diary day´s moods , together

    Es como mis estados de ánimo diarios, juntos

  • There's like...no red bar on dislikes...

    Finally YouTube has tastes.

  • can't stop listen this music....!!!!!

  • che figo il suo concerto.xD vorrei esseri a PARIGI nel 23/6/11 per vedere il suo concerto.non vedo l'ora di vedere i suoi prossimi videi.xD 

  • reminds of the cello from the film ip man

  • Any US tour soon? love to feel this in a live concert.

  • I would love to see this live. Sooo inspiring!! X')

  • I love the way this guy's smile brightens up after every song.

  • This sounds amazing!

  • I love his songs so much. @______@)

    I especially think this one is catchy. Does anyone know where I could download this?

  • This is beautiful~

  • I prefer this live version to his studio version. This one has a completely different vibe! Love it

  • ありがどこざいましだ!

  • @3:00

  • @RobotChick1000 Its an Erhu, I think they call it the Chinese violin

  • How could someone dislike such gorgeous music?

  • I'm loving this one, it's giving me goosebumps <3

  • HOW DOES HE KEEP MAKING PERFECT MUSIC

  • HE'S PURE GENIUS, I LOVE EVERY SINGLE MUSIC

  • ...

    woaw...

  • Oriental Wind, which is the stated in the video and the title of this video.

  • Beautiful. Neither jazz nor classical, but something in between... Anyone know what the name of the piece is, or if it is on CD?

  • ahhhhh how japenese have thier own wild spirit

  • I almost cried from the beauty here, orchestra can never be matched in its power

  • Joe Hisaishi and Hayao Miyazaki are like Elton John and Bernie Taupin. Or like, Lennon/McCartney. They do/did their best work together.

  • este tio es lo mejor

    otra muy buena es asian dream

    

  • Best five minutes and forty five seconds of my life...this week, but still pretty epic.

  • EXCELENTE absolutamente MARAVILLOZA

  • It's like they both eat off of each other's inspiration.

  • @AzeriLolli

    Yeah, I think its so cute how they're friends.

  • 感動 如此創造

  • absolutly BEAUTIFUL! 

  • @AzeriLolli no HISAISHI + MIYAZAKI = MAJOR PWNAGE

  • love it XD

  • Still like it very much, no matter how many times I've listened.

  • 11 deaf people saw this..

  • Oh, i forgot

    anyone knows, who are the saxophonist at 2:35 and the Cellist at 0:05 name?

  • Comment removed

  • i love love love it.

  • Just watch his smiling at the end , this is true passion

  • @OkeyXDokeyXArtechoky how dare you compare this genius with justin beiber....

  • @Jelli4ever WTF. That shouldn't even be possible.

  • @Jelli4ever @OkeyXDokeyXArtechoky YEAH, HOW DARE YOU?!

    Everybody knows that JB is a Master Living Mythological Legend God(dess) that can't be compared with mere mortals...

  • @OkeyXDokeyXArtechoky justin beiber can never be compared to Joe Hisaishi, even to the tip of the tiniest part of Joe's body...never in his wildest dreams!!! how could you just compare him to such a genius!! >:(

  • @OkeyXDokeyXArtechoky Did.. Did you just compare one of the greatest pianists in the world with some 12-year-old squeaky, pre-pubescent dickhead who needs to use heavy amounts of Auto tune in order to even HAVE a singing voice? I oughta throw my monitor right at your head.

  • @OkeyXDokeyXArtechoky This guy said "move over Justin Bieber". He never compared the two, guys. And rightly so, Justin Bieber, no offense, has nowhere near as much talent as this man.

  • @OkeyXDokeyXArtechoky His name should not be mentioned since Joe Hisaishi is far too good and he will never reach up to Hisaishi's level.

  • love the use of the Marimba in this piece. no instrument can escape Hisaishi's musical greatness grasp.

  • i believe i'm in loveee.

  • God bless Joe Hisaishi and you for sharing this ^_^**

    (when they did Gedo Seki not having old man Miyazaki was one of their two fatal flaws ~ the other was not getting Joe Hisaishi to do the music)

  • In William Goldman's novel "The Princess Bride," the title "Wizard" is given to an artist so great that not even the title "Master" can begin to describe their incredible skill. Truly Hisaishi is a wizard of music.

  • @GreysPrincess interesting

  • Amazing is not even a word to describe this. This is incredible. No, not even that.

  • 3:01 what instrument is that?

  • @ariencalen hey! it's called a Shamisen! so beautiufl, right?

  • @ariencalen chinese instrument which called ERHU, also known in the West as the "Chinese violin"

  • Wow.....just...wow.... *.*

  • i love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111111

  • does anyone know where I can get the sheet music for all the instruments here? im having no luck searching :(

  • @kikipetrushka there are piano arrangements for his songs i think. i dont have them but i think i remember seeing it in the music store

  • This is such beautiful and amazing music, I could listen to this song all day

  • 10 people got blown away by the oriental wind....

  • my fav composer since 7 yrs old:)

  • Now this, THIS is an orchestra. Pure, strong and beautifully unique at the same time. Not like usual school orchestras, except one of the best ones.

  • speechles... 

  • What?! his composing level is over 9000!

  • @MrMustashio09

    LMFAO XD

  • o.o He makes me feel drawn to become a fan just like DBSK lolz

  • =D I loooooove it...

  • which concert/dvd is this from?

  • It sounds soo good on youtube. Imagine how good it would sound if we were actually THERE.

  • His music got a oriential taste in it!

  • This made me regretted not learning a musical instrument, i want to play like him!!

  • i like how when hes not playing he looks like gangsta XD

  • i want him to soundtrack my life

  • @Bleach4canada

    Jo Hisaishi has written the soundtrack to everybody's life - they just don't know it yet :)

  • Good stuff ^_^

  • Well...I DOnt mind being gay for him...

  • I LOVE JOE HISAISHI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • His music gives me goosebumps. Absolutely love him! I wonder when he will tour outside Japan!?

  • I don't get why would someone dislike joe hisaish's music!!!

  • Nine people are tone deaf! 

  • It doesn't matter if someone is Gay or Straight.

    People love different kinds of music.

    Music is Genderless!

  • JESUS bless this man!

    AWESOME!!! I had never heard of him, but it's really good. Claps to Mr. Hisaishi!

  • Lol. I would go gay for him if it meant listening to his music all the time.

  • Joe Hisaishi makes such unique and interesting music its always SO AWESOME to listen to.

  • ohlalalalalalalalalalalalalala­lalalalalala

  • Wonderful! Ishaishi is one of my favorite ost composers...

  • orientalbean loves oriental wind :)

    no racial xDD

  • his fusion-asian style of music is awesome

  • 9 people don't know what real music is.

  • Does anybody know where to get the orchestral music-sheet for this song?

  • Look at him - as soon as the song ends 5:30 he smiles like a fool cause he knows they just nailed it!

    This song is awesome - excellent rhythm with almost no percussion, tons of powerful & unconventional chords - i think Mr. Hisaishi really loves this song because he keeps moving with it.

  • pure genuis

  • eargasm......

  • I want to compose music like this one day~ <3

  • verdaderamente tanto talento es digno de una magnifica ovación...
