I have always been a fan of Ursala K LeGuin's Earthsea books, so when I saw this disc I was intrigued as to what this SACD would offer.
This recording is obviously a soundtrack for what appears to be a Japanese Animé picture, but since there is nothing in English to explain anything, one must simply speculate.
The music is very interesting and enjoyable....enough so that I would like to see the movie, even if it is in Japanese.
Also, the music (included are some images from the recording studio) is VERY well recorded and shows that the folks in the booth knew what they were doing!!! Despite the smallish looking studio, the sound is excellent and there is a nice feel of space.
While this is not an earth shattering release, it IS interesting if you like fantasy film music..also what is nice that for once North American SACD fans can actually get a Japanese import without having to pay a fortune or have to jump through hoops to obtain a copy!!
Very enjoyable music!!!!
