The combination of western and eastern musical moods is something I appreciate. The piano sounds cold but beautiful and soft while the orchestra balances. This makes me want to reminisce or just walk outside.
This is from 'Playing the Orchestra 2013', in May 9th 2013, at Suntory Hall, Tokyo. The conductor is 栗田博文 / Hirofumi Kurita. The orchestra is Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra.

beautiful stuff.
Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence, the theme from Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence , the movie (Furyo, in many European countries). Sakamoto + piano = a magnificent live version.
