Piano»rank: 14923de: EMI Music Canada
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Michael Nyman came of age as a classical composer in the radical London of the late '60s. His work embraces multiple vernaculars (jazz, avant garde, conceptual art) and helped cement the foundation of what came to be known as minimalism. Decades into his career, Nyman's score to Jane Campion's film The Piano made him a star. The movie's themes of colonialism and silence (its protagonist, portrayed by Holly Hunter, cannot speak) were perfectly aligned with his longtime interests in world and ambient music. Horn players assist members ... |

1980-2001 Film Music Very Be»rank: 18300par: Michael Nyman
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:0ut of the dozens of high-profile film composers to have appeared in the 1980s, Michael Nyman has retained his unique voice like no other. This two-disc collection proves that with generous selections from a 20-year period.

Chroniques et points de vue:From :Brooding, modern, and introspective, Michael Nyman's score for Neil Jordan's screen adaptation of Graham Greene's dark, postwar drama largely eschews melodic accessibility and convention. lnstead, much as frequent David Cronenberg collaborator Howard Shore (and the great Bernard Herrmann before them), Nyman utilizes subtly shifting minimalist motifs (played by his namesake string and wind ensemble) to underscore the film's moods and amplify its drama. Though the result may not be memorable from a traditional melodic sense, many will find it an emotionally commanding soundscape that's as challenging as ... |

Claim Original Soundtrack»rank: 42284de: Virgin
Chroniques et points de vue:From Amazon.co.uk:The Claim is an adaptation of Thomas Hardy's The Mayor of Casterbridge, a morality play on greed. As a film composer, Nyman can be relied upon for not doing certain things. Glorifying action or violence is a case in point, and for moments like 'The Explosion' or 'The Shoot 0ut', there's no attempt to mimic bursts of volume or highlight drama so as to become melodrama. lnstead, this album represents possibly the most superb intuitive scoring of his career. lmmediately with 'The Exchange' you're washed over by ... |
