I play the piccolo on the fast bit as well. I really like this piece and that one from 'the piano', I cant remember what its called...
I love the build-up of all the instruments.

In Greenaway's films these tracks by Nyman conveyed an indescribable and yet dispassionate tragedy. PG fashioned A Zed and Two Naughts as if it were formally a comedy, with the twins finding consummation in suicide; and same with Drowning by Numbers, and certainly in The Cook, The Thief... And somehow I feel certain that Nyman's music fit the scheme of stymied forms--but ultimately with a gravity that sticks with you.

That's very true. Interesting to note, also, that Nyman's music for Draughstman's Contract and ZOO and Cook Thief, for examples, were written before any filming took place. That allowed Greenaway to fashion the image to the
music. I had read he was actually disappointed in Drowning by Numbers because the filming took place first and Nyman "scored" it. I disagree though.

Spectacular piece of music; we did it in year 10 as a part of our music gcse. I didn't use it as my final piece, but it was fun doing it anyway ;D
Love it :)

We made our own (maybe slightly improvised!) version of this song. I did ground bass. Then we had electric guitar on melody 4 and generally filling in. Of course, theres the chords and other melodies. Our intro was the best! srsly!
