Erik Satie: Satie Piano Works Vol.3: Piano: Instrumental Album

Cette nouvelle édition de l'intégrale de la musique pour piano d'Erik Satie, en trois volumes, est une version totalement révisée et regravée de l'édition centenaire de son oeuvre pianistique. Elle revient aux sources manuscrites et premières éditions des pièces de Satie, et offre aux interprètes des textes musicaux fi ables et pertinents. Ces volumes proposent toutes les pièces pour piano solo, ou en réduction pour piano, publiées par Satie, incluant quelques pièces antérieures inconnues, telles la Petite Sonate que Satie écrivit pour Vincent d'Indy à la Schola Cantorum, et quelques premières versions de pièces très connues, comme San Bernardo, version d'essai d'Españaña (1913), ou encore les premières versions très différentes de Les Pantins dansent (1914). On trouvera également quelques exemples des différents exercices que Satie exécuta à la Schola entre 1907 et 1912, quelques tentatives supplémentaires d'Enfantines, et quelques brouillons antérieurs de ses célèbres Sports et divertissements. Des indications métronomiques ont été ajoutées afi n d'aider les interprètes, de même que certaines suggestions de jeu pour les oeuvres relatives à la période Rose+Croix des années 1890, pièces qui sinon pourraient ne sembler que lentes et tranquilles. La notation a été envisagée sous l'angle le plus pratique possible, sans pour autant négliger le soucis de Satie quant à l' ' extériorisation ' de sa pensée musicale sur papier. / Piano

The renowned pianist Hans-Günter Heumann has arranged these 30 contemporary Piano classics which are some of the greatest hits of modern composers, inspired by minimalism and drawing on many other genres. Including arrangements of Einaudi, Yiruma and Yann Tiersen among many others, Piano Pur features many songs to soothe the soul. The most acclaimed composers of the genre like Dustin O'Halloran, Ludovico Einaudi, Yann Tiersen and Philip Glass are represented here, with beautiful arrangements by Heumann. The repetitive structures build rhythms and melodies that envelop the listener, resulting in wonderful pieces of music that are as enjoyable to play as they are simply to listen to. The juxtaposition of patterns and motifs create relaxing and joyful music that may come under the genre of 'miminalism', but is far from simplistic. Featuring songs like River Flows In You, Nightbook, Metamorphosis One and Three as well as Erik Satie's masterful Gymnopédie #1, Piano Pur is a wonderful selection of the most beautiful contemporary classical pieces, as well as three original compositions by Heumann himself. Featuring a unique MP3 CD with full demonstrations as well, this songbook has everything you might need to learn how to play these fantastic songs on Piano./ Recueil / Piano
