User reviews
- Amazing show. Coming back again
- Attending the Candlelight Concert featuring the music of Studio Ghibli was an unforgettable experience. The intimate, candle-lit atmosphere created the perfect setting for an evening of breathtaking music, bringing beloved Ghibli melodies to life in the most enchanting way. The musicians were incredibly talented, capturing the heart and soul of Joe Hisaishi’s compositions with precision and emotion. From the nostalgic beauty of My Neighbor Totoro to the sweeping, emotional melodies of Spirited Away and Howl’s Moving Castle, every piece transported us into the whimsical worlds of Studio Ghibli. Sharing this experience with my daughter, sister, nephew, and niece made it even more special. Seeing the joy and wonder on their faces as they recognized each song was priceless. The concert was not just a performance—it was a journey through cherished childhood memories and cinematic magic. If you’re a fan of Studio Ghibli or simply appreciate beautifully arranged music in a stunning ambiance, I highly recommend experiencing a Candlelight Concert. It was a night we will always remember!
