Asian soundtracks (Help needed)

Dear all,

I'm in need of a bit of help here. A very close friend of mine loves nothing more then listening to asian soundtracks. One of her favourite soundtracks is the one from "The Myth" and she has a definite bias towards any kind of japanese and asian sounds.

Could you advise me on some titles she'd love? I'm looking for a birthday present and a good soundtrack sounds just about right :)

Thanks in advance

oh my... there are sooo many beautiful asian scores!

I would suggest:
- Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
- Musa (which is impossible to find these days)
- Ying Xiong (Hero)
- Casshern (2 Disc edition)

- all music from the movies by Studio Ghibli

- music by composers: Shiro Sagisu, Joe Hisaishi, Taro Iwashiro, Ryichi Sakamoto, Tan Dun
