Biography

As one of Britain's most innovative and celebrated composers, Michael Nyman's work encompasses operas and string quartets, film soundtracks and orchestral concertos. Far more than merely a composer, he's also a performer, conductor, bandleader, pianist, author, musicologist and now a photographer and film-maker. Although he's far too modest to allow the description 'Renaissance Man', his restless… Read more in Amazon's Michael Nyman Store

The Piano 17 Feb 2010
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This CD is excellent for relaxing and entertaining piano music from a modern composer. You do not need to have seen the film 'The Piano' to appreciate the beautiful melodies especially 'The Heart seeks pleasure first' which is the best track in my opinion.

This soundtrack goes along way to ensuring the effectiveness and success of the film of the same name. The tracks have a lovely melancholy vein and there is a fluidity to the piano playing that enraptures. The mood is Romantic but is played out in a way that is nearly altogether modern. The heart asks pleasure first is a particular highlight and conjours up images of the wild and ragged beach scenery of New Zealand shown in the film. just about perfect

Mesmerising 9 Aug 2009
Format:Audio CD
My theory goes that most movies named simply 'The *****' are worth watching. This masterpiece proves my theory in spades. A straightforward storyline with a twist or two, a sumptuous and haunting musical accompaniment, and immense acting drags you unceremoniously through every emotion known to man - elation, fear, humour, disguist - and then some. Ensure you'll have no interruptions for two hours, don't eat anything with wrappings that rustle, sit back and be awe-inspired.
