About Song

"Merry-Go-Round of Life" by Joe Hisaishi is the main theme of the Studio Ghibli film Howl's Moving Castle. It is a waltz that evokes a sense of nostalgia and magic.

Adaptation for Kalimba:

  • Key: A Minor. Uses the relative minor of C Major, so no retuning is needed on a standard C kalimba.
  • Difficulty: Medium to Hard. The waltz rhythm (1-2-3) is key to getting this right.
