Joe Hisaishi, fresh from making history as the first classical artist to headline three consecutive nights at Madison Square Garden in 2024, releases the ‘Mladi’ EP to celebrate his birthday. These three new excerpts taken from the soundtracks of films written and directed by Takeshi Kitano, sees Joe taking on the role of soloist on keyboard whilst directing the legendary Wiener Symphoniker. Lead track ‘Summer’ is one of Joe’s best loved songs, taken from the 1999 road movie ‘Kikujiro’ and is accompanied by the classics ‘Hana-Bi’ and ‘Kids Return’ on this essential E.P.
