The Piano [2004]
Personnel includes: Michael Nyman (conductor, piano); Andrew Findon (flute, tenor & baritone saxophones); John Harle, David Roach (soprano & alto saxophones).
Recorded at Arco Studios, Munich, Germany. Includes liner notes by Michael Nyman.
Composer: Michael Nyman.
This crossover hit, the soundtrack to Jane Campion's film, is subtle, pretty, and just a little bit bland. Nyman keeps the theatrics to a minimum, crafting an evocative work that manages to be both personal and universal. He also lets the music run its course, never pushing or cutting off a piece until it says what it needs to. A towering commercial achievement from a decidedly non-commercial artist. ~ Michael Gallucci
