For The Record: Shigeru Umebayashi

A new CD in the ‘For The Record’ series has seen the light of day. Following in the footsteps of Mychael Danna, Craig Armstrong and Angelo Badalamenti this fourth compilation puts the Japanese composer Shigeru Umebayashi in the spotlight. Shigeru Umebayashi was the guest of honor at the 36th edition of the Film Fest Gent. Under the direction of conductor Dirk Brossé, the Brussels Philharmonic recorded sixteen numbers that paint a powerful picture of Umebayashi’s work. ‘For The Record: Shigeru Umebayashi’ was produced in partnership with Unicef.
