kajnrig Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 So the Wikipedia article for the M+ soundtracks says that its main theme, "Voices," is based on Gabriel Faure's "Sicilienne," a classical music piece for cello and piano. Anyone know if the creators have talked about musical inspirations in the movie/OVA? Apparently the same piece has spawned other anime music as well, judging by the comments. Quote
slide Posted March 18, 2018 Posted March 18, 2018 I can hear the inspiration for voices, definitely. Yoko Kanno is also known for... "homage" to other music in her writing Quote
kajnrig Posted March 18, 2018 Author Posted March 18, 2018 It's the being inspiration for apparently a bunch of other anime songs that really intrigues me. I wonder if that piece is taught a lot in Japanese orchestra classes or something. Quote

Having said that, there does seem to be quite a bit of music in anime where they use French composers like Satie or Debussy. Quote
