Celebrated for his influential and diverse career in music and beyond, Michael Nyman is particularly recognised for his work in film composition, showcased here in his soundtracks for Peter Greenaway.
Often built upon pre-existing sources, from Purcell to Mozart, which were blended with aspects of popular music and minimalist techniques, Nyman's compositions transformed how the role of film music is understood, while complementing Greenaway's avant-garde creations.
