| | Michael Nyman : The Essential Michael Nyman Band - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect |
| | The title of the album says it all for Nyman or Greenaway fans, as it is certainly nice to have the strongest tracks from the film scores in one place. | | | One might consider this collection to be a "Best of Nyman/Greenaway." Nyman's music is an essential element of Greenaway's films, as the director usually shoots his film to the music after it has been composed and recorded. | | | The Essential Michael Nyman Band collects some of the music Michael Nyman has composed for the films of director Peter Greenaway. |

| | Wonderland - Michael Nyman |
| | While the Michael Nyman Band could never be described as a symphony orchestra, it sounds more like a modern chamber orchestra than ever for Wonderland; as with his more romantic scores of late, the music is string led, but with a prominent saxophone part on occasion. | | | Nyman himself performs the piano on several of the tracks on occasions when an even more intimate atmosphere is required. | | | However, with such a convincing dramatic landscape and some wonderful tunes, Wonderland is a superb album and an ideal entry to Nyman's music. |

| | Michael Nyman - film composer |
| | To tie-in with his new album "The Piano Sings" Nyman has embarked on a solo tour playing at a number of venues across the UK in October and November 2005. | | | Michael Nyman has been known to introduce himself to a French audience as "The English Yann Tiersen" so if you like Nyman's music you might wish to sample some by Tiersen (or vice versa). | | | A band was formed to play these which later became known as the Michael Nyman Band (dropping the original medieval instruments and introducing amplification), while Nyman himself started to write the Band's material. |

| | Michael Nyman - The Piano |
| | Nyman realised this immediately and sought first of all to create the right sound for Ada's music. | | | He decided that she was from Scotland and, as a self-taught musician, would compose music layering Scottish folk, dance and popular songs from the era (Victorian 1850s) onto a classical foundation. | | | Having created a number of piano pieces that Ada would play at various times during the film, he then went on to use these tunes and moods as the background tapestry mixing in other orchestral forces (mainly strings and some woodwind, with saxophones prominent in some tracks) to support the piano sound. |

| | Nyman intends to extend this event throughout the year, performing similar concerts in various international territories. | | | This was the first ever commercially released work by Nyman and originally intended for a Peter Greenaway film back in 1976 (but never used). | | | Of particular note, is the fact that it was originally released on the Obscure label which was part of the Portobello Road experimental music scene (other's include Gavin Bryars, Michael Brook etc.,) of the 70's and is credited as the first minimalist piece for Greenaway's 1-100. |

| | Michael Nyman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Nyman also wrote an influential book in 1974 on experimental music called Experimental Music: Cage and Beyond, which explored the influence of John Cage on classical composers. | | | On children's television shows, Michael has created the music for Katie and Orbie and Titch. | | | He is generally acknowledged to have been the first to apply the term "minimalism" to music, in a 1968 article in The Spectator magazine about the English composer Cornelius Cardew. |

| | Check for used copies of this album in the: | | | A main theme exists, sure, but it is so similar to the rest of the "filler" music that you can hardly distinguish between them. | | | Nyman (The Piano) is not the name that comes to mind when typically thinking of a science fiction thriller, but the suspense created by the film's examination of social mores is well suited for him. |

| | The Claim by Michael Nyman @ Cinemusic |
| | The addition of a solo soprano to the Nyman Orchestra adds a nice human quality. | | | And I must admit, by itself, THE CLAIM is a very good piece of music. | | | No track is technically the same, but the lack of any emotional range is a bit excessive, even for a Nyman score. |

| | Gattaca - Michael Nyman |
| | The music worked surprisingly well in the film, a rich counterpoint to the dilemmas of the protagonists and the austere and sterile world in which they live. | | | They do make the return of the opening material more welcome when it finally does appear during The Other Side and The Departure. | | | Of course, this is a Nyman score and so the concept of a main theme is somewhat different, but a tune based on rising and falling patterns of three notes is heard on many occasions, naturally introduced in the opening track, The Morrow. |
