Will Power (album)

Will Power is a 1987 album by Joe Jackson.^[1] It is his first experiment with classical music, continued in later albums including Night Music, Heaven and Hell, and Symphony No. 1.

In the winter of 1985, Jackson had been commissioned to write a 20 minute score for a Japanese film, Shijin No Ie (House of the Poet), and the orchestral piece was recorded with the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra.^[3] Jackson adapted it into "Symphony in One Movement" and added other instrumental pieces, which set the stage for things to come later.^[1][3]
