Celebrating the genius of Ryuichi Sakamoto, this special release presents the first official overview of his legendary film scores, performed by the Brussels Philharmonic under conductor Dirk Brossé. Originally released in connection with the World Soundtrack Awards at Film Fest Gent 2016, the album highlights Sakamoto’s remarkable career, from his breakthrough with Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence (1983) to award-winning scores such as The Last Emperor, High Heels, Snake Eyes, and The Revenant.
