The Works: Michael Nyman and the Man from Mazda

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

British composer Michael Nyman, best known for his score for the Oscar-winning film The Piano, was commissioned to compose a piece of music by Japanese car giant Mazda. The resulting concerto for saxophone and cello was premiered at the Royal Festival Hall in March. This film charts the unusual relationship between Michael Nyman, maverick of the music world, and David Heslop, managing director of Mazda UK.
