From paulmccartney.com:
Marking his first work in the world of dance, Paul announced the general release of Ocean’s Kingdom, commissioned by the New York City Ballet and performed by The London Classical Orchestra, Keen to tell a story through his music, Paul decided to focus on the purity of the ocean, creating a world featuring distinctive characters and a vibrant underworld kingdom. His collaborator Peter Martins created the choreography with the NYCB dancers. Ocean’s Kingdom duly topped the classical charts and reached the Number 1 spot in the US and Number 2 in the UK.
