Miyazaki's work has long been my favorite animated films
since my childhood, and just about the best (next to Spirited Away)
is Kiki's Delivery Service. A quaint tale about a 13-year-old witch
and her cat discovering a larger world outside of her childhood
home, in a Europe that might have existed if World War II had
never happened (a reoccurring theme in Miyazaki's work (see
Howl's Moving Castle, as well). This was the first of his films
that I saw, after Disney licensed his movies in the 90's, although
I had heard of My neighbor Totoro. My nephew and nieces at the
time loved it. The music was wonderful, also, and here's the sound-
track that I found on a Japanese social board. Also is included, on the
third track, the English song that played during the end credits, "I'm
gonna Fly" (I couldn't find "Soaring" anywhere at the moment).
Enjoy!
"I'm gonna Fly..."

I really enjoy his movies as well. Here is a link to more soundtracks http://my.opera.com/Soundtracks%20Lover/blog/joe-hisaishi-world
Also could you re-up the third segment of the Joeseph Cambell Heroes Journey
Thanks!
My favorite would prolly either be Nausiica or Princess Mononoke.
