Walt Whitman's unabashed optimism, exuberance, and unwavering confidence in our deeper humanity is beautifully portrayed through music in Gjeilo's setting of excerpts of the Song of the Universal poem. For string orchestra, piano, and choir.

A medley of our favourite music from the Studio Ghibli movies, originally composed by the incredible Joe Hisaishi.

Includes music from: The Wind Rises, My Neighbor Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle, and Spirited Away.

I had the incredible experience of collaborating with Shawn Gan for this project. He is a talented composer and multi-instrumentalist with a true passion and patience for music. As huge fans of the Studio Ghibli films, we had planned to record this for over a year, and I am beyond excited to finally have something to look back on. Enjoy!

Medley of music from "La La Land", originally composed by Justin Hurwitz.

I'm very thankful to have collaborated with Sam Yang on this medley, and we had a great time trying to capture elements of these songs that resonated with us the most. I think we both saw this as an opportunity to step out of our comfort zones and explore a little bit of jazz sensibility. Thanks for listening!
