Composer Erik Satie Discography (301)
Erik Satie Biography
A French composer as eccentric in his way of life as in his music, Satie exercised considerable influence over some of his more distinguished contemporaries, including Debussy, Ravel and Poulenc, particularly through his tendency to extreme simplicity. A number of his compositions have become very familiar to many, largely through their use in other contexts.
Stage Works
Best known among the various stage works of Satie is his collaboration with Jean Cocteau, Parade, described as a ballet réaliste, first performed in Paris in 1917.
Piano Music
It is principally the piano pieces by Satie that have won some popularity. Among these, many with characteristically eccentric titles, are the Gymnopédies, the three Gnossiennes and the three Sarabandes. Include non-classical products (37)

| Satie For Relaxation - Dickinson, Allen, Stoltzman, Et Al CD (2000)
$7.75 The playfully mischievous and the lyrically lush swirl together in the unfussy musical language of Erik *. Personnel: Lars Hannibal (guitar); Nancy Allen (harp); Michala Petri (recorder); Richard Stoltzman (clarinet); Peter Dickinson, John White (piano). The notion of his music as relaxing background music would have no doubt appealed to *, who conceived of "furniture music" which could be "part of the surrounding noises melodious, softening the clatter of knives and forks, without imposing itself." This present recording serves up a most satisfying meal of *'s musical dishes, the main course being the charming and restrained performances of Peter Dickinson on piano. Dessert is undoubtedly the transcriptions of numbers 1 and 2 of the Gymnopédies. The transcription of the first, arranged for clarinet and harp, enjoys the beautiful tone and impeccable musicianship of clarinetist Richard Stoltzman.
