Sports et divertissements (Sports and Pastimes) is a cycle of 21 short piano pieces composed in 1914 by Erik Satie.
The set consists of a prefatory chorale and 20 musical vignettes depicting various sports and leisure activities. First published in 1923, it has long been considered one of his finest achievements.
Musically it represents the peak of Satie's humoristic piano suites (1912-1915), but stands apart from that series in its fusion of several different art forms. Sports originally appeared as a collector's album with illustrations by Charles Martin, accompanied by music, prose poetry and calligraphy. The latter three were provided by Satie in his exquisite handwritten scores, which were printed in facsimile.
This arrangement includes the following pieces:
8.Le Yachting
10.Le Carnaval
11.Le Golf
15.Le Pique-nique
16.Le Water-chute
17. Le Tango
19.Le Flirt
20.Le Feu d'Artifice
21. Le Tennis
