About this event

A string quartet works through the Studio Ghibli songbook by candlelight at St. Stephen's Uniting Church in the city. Worth flagging up front: this is a tribute programme, not Joe Hisaishi himself, and it's not affiliated with the composer in any way.

The setlist leans on the familiar ones — Totoro's main theme, Merry Go Round of Life from Howl's Moving Castle, Princess Mononoke, Spirited Away. Runs about 65 minutes, with no entry once it starts.

Seating is assigned first come, first served within each zone, so getting in early pays off.
