Presented by Dreamphonic Ongekidan – Non-Verbal Music Communication, KAGUYAHIME: The Moon Princess tells the mystical story of Princess Kaguya, the mysterious girl found inside a glowing bamboo stalk, through an epic musical journey spanning eighteen tracks.
The defining feature of this work is its invented-language vocals—lyrics that belong to no existing language. Free from the boundaries of words, the melodies, harmonies, and vocal expressions communicate emotion and imagery directly, creating a musical experience that transcends language, culture, and borders.
Rich orchestral arrangements, dramatic storytelling, ever-changing rhythms, and magnificent choral passages come together with the expressive freedom of progressive rock to breathe new life into one of Japan’s greatest legends.
The legendary quests of five noble suitors, the bittersweet farewell to the Emperor, and Princess Kaguya’s return to the Moon…
As her destiny unfolds, listeners are drawn into a fantastical world where music speaks beyond words.
This is more than an album.
It is an epic story told entirely through music.
Experience a new interpretation of The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, brought to life by Dreamphonic Ongekidan – Non-Verbal Music Communication.
Step into a world beyond language, and listen to the legend told through music.
