Об альбоме (сборнике)
The Cook The Thief His Wife & Her Lover is the twelfth album release by Michael Nyman and the ninth to feature the Michael Nyman Band. It is the soundtrack to the eponymous film by Peter Greenaway. The album includes the first commercially released recording of Memorial (Greenaway heard a radio recording of the original performance that has not been commercially released), and this is the only piece discussed in the liner notes, to the point that the lyric sheet for “Miserere” (based on Psalm 51), the song which Pup the kitchen boy sings, is misidentified “Memorial.” “Book Depository” is one of Nyman’s many waltzes.
Nyman does not here identify the origin of Memorial as a bass ground from Henry Purcell’s King Arthur, but he does so elsewhere, including on After Extra Time. The liner notes primarily note the 1985 Heysel Stadium disaster that occurred during the work’s composition and became what the work was about and a discussion of the premiere of the work in a disused nuclear power plant in Yainville before Paul Richards’s painting, The Kiss, and its ultimate “dismantling,” preventing it from being used to commemorate the 1989 Hillsborough disaster.
There is some music in the film that is not included on the soundtrack album: the love theme for Michael and Georgina, which is “Fish Beach” from Drowning by Numbers, the song (“Something Sometime Soon”) performed as a show in the restaurant, or a doubly pulsed variation of Memorial that occurs about halfway through the film. Edits of “Memorial” appear throughout the film, with the entire twelve-minute movement accompanying the final scene and end credits, but one variation is uniquely created for the film.
All Music Review
For this, his seventh soundtrack for director Peter Greenaway, Nyman deftly orchestrates a mix of strings, horns, and voices to produce another of his fetching and romantic minimalist backdrops. The opening “Memorial” is the highlight of the lot and drives along with stuttering saxophones, an insistent string arrangement, elegiac brass solos, and the soaring vocals of soprano Sarah Leonard (Leonard would be featured on a large part of the Prospero’s Books soundtrack). The piece was originally inspired by a 1985 Belgian soccer match tragedy, in which 39 Italian fans were killed. Nyman utilized a death march in his earlier Greenaway collaboration, Drowning by Numbers, and revives the scheme to great effect here for what would become the main theme of The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover. Nyman contrasts the piece’s climatic quality with two relatively sedate yet brooding numbers. There’s also a rousing performance of his “Miserere” (performed by the London Voices choir) and a violin and piano paraphrase of the same piece to add to an already solid soundtrack. Nyman is again aided by his crack band, which includes such standouts as violinist Alexander Balanescu and tenor saxophonist John Harle. Along with the soundtracks to The Piano and Prospero’s Books, this is an essential title in the Nyman catalog.
