Erik Satie: Gnossiennes: Piano

Pour Piano - Collection Archives Eric Satie-Seven timeless and enigmatic pieces for Piano solo by forward thinking and avant garde French composer Erik Satie. There is a definite distant Romantic quality running through these Six Gnossiennes with the score interspersed with unusual and often surreal instructions for the performer. They are among the best known of all of the composer???s works despite his intention that it should be wallpaper music - not to be heard but overheard by an audience.

This volume is the largest collection of Satie's piano works yet published including some of the most original and appealing achievements of a turbulent era in music compositions that influenced such modern masters as Ravel Milhaud and Poulenc. This delightful collection includes the well-known Gymnopedies Gnossiennes Sarabandes and much more.

Trois Gnossiennes-Erik Satie's 1890 compositions Trois Gnossiennes are another example of his masterful minimalist style. These dance-like pieces allow a certain freedom to players and have a distinctly oriental feel which makes them ideal repertoire for aspiring and advanced Pianists.

Maurice Rogers has brought together this first collection of Erik Satie's works containing: Three Sarabandes Three Gymnopédies Three Gnossiennes Prélude de la Porte Héro que du Ciel Pièces Froides Véritables Préludes Flasques Descriptions Automatiques Embryons Dessé Chés Avant - Dernières Pensées Sonatine Bureaucratique Five Nocturnes. Volume One.

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
