Sonatine bureaucratique-Although Satie took the classical form as a model for his Sonatine it is quintessentially an ironic work. The composer who later in life liked to be seen walking through the streets wearing a stiff collar and bowler hat included lines of text between the staves that describe the day of a typical Parisian bureaucrat. The bureaucrat sits in a chair with green silk sleeve guards and dreams of being promoted. Next door a piano is playingClementi and at this point parodied echoes of Clementi s popular Sonatine op. 36/1 can actually be heard. Ulrich Kr mer provides knowledgeable background information in the preface to our edition that will enable a betterunderstanding of Satie s work.
