Free Music Notes for The Essential Michael Nyman Band
Free Music Review: Sampling of Nyman's best, most difficult
Hit: 5 Stars
Here's to the greatest living composer, Michael Nyman.
Fans of his accessible works like The End of the Affair and Gattaca will be in for a shock; his more difficult work (like THE KISS and most of Greenaway) is his best, but it takes a while to get into. If you love Draughtman's Contract, ZOO, or his live album, you should definitely get this.
This ties with the live album as my favorite of Nyman's.
