The Piano

The Piano is the original soundtrack, on the Virgin Records label, of the 1993 Academy Award-winning film The Piano. The original score was composed by Michael Nyman and is his twentieth album release. Despite being called a "soundtrack", this is a partial score re-recording, as Nyman himself also performs the piano on the album. The music is performed by the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Nyman, with Michael Nyman Band members John Harle, David Roach and Andrew Findon performing the prominent saxophone work.
