The soundtrack to Studio Ghibli's 2013 anime 'The Wind Rises', composed by Joe Hisaishi who also conducted the Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Orchestra throughout it, now arrives on double vinyl. Including the theme song 'Hikouki Cloud' by Yumi Arai, the use of folk instruments such as the bayan and balalaika make it one of the most sumptuous Ghibli scores.
