Nodame Cantabile Drama Soundtrack and Music List

Daisuke Mogi was the musical director for Nodame Cantabile and all the episodes feature original music by Takayuki Hattori along with several classical music pieces. The orchestral music was performed by the Nodame Orchestra which consisted of members who were specially selected for the live-action drama with professional support from the Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony Orchestra.

The Orchestra was conducted by James DePriest, Permanent Conductor of the Tokyo Metropolitan Orchestra. He would later have his name and likeness used in the Nodame storyline as the musical director of the fictional Roux-Marlet Orchestra.

The opening theme for both the drama series and special was the First movement ("Andante Cantabile") from Beethoven's Symphony No. 7, and the ending theme was Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, both performed by the Nodame Orchestra conducted by Toshiaki Umeda.
