Unreal City by Jonathan Parry
Music composed by Jonathan Parry © MCPS/PRS
An album of pieces written between 1980 and 1985. These are in a simple and direct style with some elements of mInimalism... This was the period when I joined the new music group 'Regular Music' led by Jeremy Peyton Jones.
- The 'Regular Music' album from 1985 with 3 of my pieces on it can be found here:

There are some influences of Glass, Reich & Nyman in these pieces but also perhaps the more 'homespun' simplicity and charm of The Penguin Café Orchestra, and the very successful style of Mike Oldfield.
