Just like how the visuals were building and building, so did the music. It really wasn't about matching visuals to the music at all. That was sort of besides the point.

It's pity really because the animation was for the most part beautiful but the characters were all playing string instruments when the music was lead by the piano. The ending was thought-provoking if a little twee, but I can't fault it for that. Incidently the music is called the 'Ritmica Ostinata for Piano and Orchestra' by Akira Ifukube. It's a very famous piece of Japanese music dating from the 60s/70s. The full piece is 23 minutes long and a pretty amazing listen if you like contemporary classical music.
