It indicates the amount of repeats of this piece with a length of only one minute and a half. Now it suddenly takes not less than 16 hours to perform it. This is a good example of the innovative and sometimes absurd genius of Erik Satie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSome early reviewers called him a charlatan, but according to Stravinsky Erik Satie was one of the great composers of his days besides Bizet and Chabrier. Debussy arranged two \u003cem\u003eGymnopedies\u003c\/em\u003e for orchestra successfully, whilst Roussel praised his impeccable counterpoint and John Cage pronounced Satie the 'indispensable' and 'art's most serious servant'. He was a man who raised opinions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn this CD all tracks are somehow related to the music by Erik Satie; five of them are arrangements of his piano works which are combined with pieces that carry the idea's of Satie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTracks: Poulenc: \u003cem\u003eImprovisation XII, Hommage a Schubert\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Satie: \u003cem\u003ePetit Ouverture a Danser\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Angel: \u003cem\u003eIguaque\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Kleynjans: \u003cem\u003eHommage a Satie\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Satie: \u003cem\u003eVexations\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Paradiso: \u003cem\u003eNotte A Venezia - Tramonto Veneziano \/ Notte A Venezia - Lullaby Veneziana \/ Notte A Venezia - Aurora Veneziana\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Poulenc: \u003cem\u003eSarabande\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Presti: \u003cem\u003eEtude Nr.2\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Satie: \u003cem\u003ePieces Froides\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Drozd: \u003cem\u003eAdagio Opus 44 (Ommagio A Johann Sebastian Bach)\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Orton: \u003cem\u003eHerbert’s Story (from The Movie Nebraska)\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Francaix: \u003cem\u003ePreludio From Serenata\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Van der Staak: \u003cem\u003eTombeau\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Andriessen: \u003cem\u003eUn Beau Baiser (from The Theatre Production George Sand)\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Angel: \u003cem\u003eAcuarela Nr.3 (Homenaje A Erik Satie)\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Angel: \u003cem\u003eAcuarela Nr 7 (Memorias De Un Navegante, Para Enno Voorhorst)\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Satie: \u003cem\u003eGymnopedie Nr.1\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Cage: \u003cem\u003e4'33\"\u003c\/em\u003e \/ Satie: \u003cem\u003eAllegro\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cobra Records","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50459351220555,"sku":"1140146","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/dfd79018-7633-4e38-9d93-493ac83b34a8_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727220612","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/840-satie-poulenc-andriessen-francaix","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
