Michael Nyman

Michael Nyman is not only one of our MySpace friends, but also an influence of Music 2 Work 2. Music 2 Work 2 sessions are often compared to his music.

Michael Nyman's music is in the classical genre. Of the four selections available on his MySpace page, two are vocal pieces, two instrumental. I especially like the instrumental pieces, "Chasing Sheep" being my favorite. It has an almost regal sound about it. This piece reminds me of Music 2 Work 2's Arrival in that they both evoke the image of the heralding of a great event.

Many of the musical artists and bands found on MySpace.com attribute Michael Nyman as being an influence on their work.
