On 27th May, the staff and students of The Purcell School were treated to a Friday lunchtime concert quite unlike any other. The Middle School Orchestra brought to life the colourful fantasy world of five Studio Ghibli films - 'Kiki's Delivery Service', 'Princess Mononoke', 'Castle in the Sky', 'Spirited Away' and 'Howl's Moving Castle'.
'Kiki’s Delivery Service' - Medley
'Princess Mononoke' - Ashitaka and San
'Castle in the Sky' - The Girl Who Fell from the Sky
'Spirited Away' - One Summer’s Day
'Howl’s Moving Castle' - Merry Go Round of Life
The arrangements were composed by a group of three friends; Yi Yun Soo, Tristan Weymes and Lucia Švecová, based on Joe Hisaishi's World Dream Symphony Orchestra concert.
