5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastically whimsical, breezy new album from Nyman, 31 Oct 2003

By	James Luckard (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I'm a Michael Nyman completist, owning every CD, and this is one of my favorites. It's the lightest, most carefree music he's ever had the opportunity to write, and it's a delight.

A number of themes from 1997's sadly rejected score to "Practical Magic" pop up here, as others did in "The Claim," another must-buy by the way.

Nyman's energetic, driving style goes perfectly with the playful tone of this piece -- he's famously said that he cares more about the energy from performers than their getting every single solitary note perfect.

If you already know Nyman's music, this is one you have to buy, and if not it's a good, extremely accessible introduction to his style, minimalism that's highly emotional and human.
