Probably most known for his Oscar nominated scores Murder On The Orient Express, Far From The Madding Crowd, and Nicholas and Alexandra in the soundtrack/film world, this is just a scratching of the surface as far as this multi talented composer is concerned. The seventeen minute orchestral work from 1995, a commission from British Telecommunications, most assuredly falls into the category of a tonal melodic composition that sounds like it could very well have come from a film, unlike some of his other compositions. Bennett considered his work for films and television “journalism”, something which paid the bills, gave financial security, and allowed him to compose whatever else he chose. Besides being a fine jazz piano player and singer he also studied under and followed some of the teachings of Pierre Boulez quite the unique composer.
