Recorded at Arco Studios, Munich, Germany. Includes liner notes by Michael Nyman. Composer: Michael Nyman. Personnel: Michael Nyman (piano). Audio Mixer: Austin Ince. Recording information: EMI Abbey Road Studios, London, England; Whitfield Street Studios, London, England. Director: Michael Nyman. Editor: Austin Ince. Photographer: Michael Nyman. This crossover hit, the soundtrack to Jane Campion's film, is subtle, pretty, and just a little bit bland. Nyman keeps the theatrics to a minimum, crafting an evocative work that manages to be both personal and universal. He also lets the music run its course, never pushing or cutting off a piece until it says what it needs to. A towering commercial achievement from a decidedly non-commercial artist. ~ Michael Gallucci
