10 JUL 2026 - Back up to full speed! Let's be honest: for the last few months, TorrentFunk was painfully slow. Pages crawled, searches dragged, and just loading the site tested everyone's patience. We hunted the problem down to our network and rebuilt it from the ground up — smarter caching, a much bigger and faster connection, and a lot of fine-tuning under the hood. The difference is night and day: the site now loads in a fraction of a second. No more waiting around. Thanks for sticking with us through the slow spell. Now go discover your funk!
The Piano is the original soundtrack, on the Virgin Records label, of the 1993 Academy Award-winning film The
Piano. The original score was composed by Michael Nyman and is his twentieth album release. Despite being
called a "soundtrack", this is a partial score re-recording, as Nyman himself also performs the piano on the
album (whereas the film version is performed by lead actress Holly Hunter). The music is performed by the
Munich Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Nyman with Michael Nyman Band members John Harle, David Roach and
Andrew Findon performing the prominent saxophone work.
The album was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Original Score (but lost to the score of Heaven
& Earth) and the BAFTA Award for Best Score (lost to the score of Schindler's List).
The album design and illustration are by Dave McKean.
