Michael Nyman and David McAlmont
T0389521631
A musical marriage made in heaven opens a week of outstanding Festival performances at Norwich Theatre Royal. In the first half Michael Nyman and his band play some of his best-known music. After the interval, Numan is joined by David McAlmont to perform works from The Glare, their beautifully crafted and critically acclaimed album released at the end of 2009. One of British pop's most precious hidden treasures, McAlmont has selected 11 classic Nyman compositions and transformed them into songs. Written in the first person, these new songs draw on a variety of world news topics, from 21st-century piracy and Lothario world leaders to drug mules and banking errors. The result is an extraordinary and intensely beautiful musical collaboration.
