Michael Nyman Desert Island Discs: Archive 1996-2000

    • 個人ジャーナル

Sue Lawley's guest this week is Michael Nyman. Said to be the best-selling classical composer in Britain, as a child visiting the opera or concert hall his imagination would be caught by a particularly pleasing sequence of notes. Later, he was to use these as inspiration for his own compositions. A Purcell manuscript inspired his music for the The Draughtsman's Contract. Scottish folk songs the soundtrack to The Piano.

Favourite track: Farewell (Das Lied von der Erde (the song of the Earth)) by Gustav Mahler
Book: Tristram Shandy by Laurence Sterne
Luxury: A toilet
