Erik Satie

À propos de Erik Satie

Erik Satie was the eccentric outsider of French music, a composer whose spare, hypnotic piano pieces anticipated minimalism and ambient music by decades. His Gymnopédies and Gnossiennes, with their gentle, melancholy simplicity, are among the most recognized piano works in the world. A witty provocateur, he influenced everyone from Debussy to John Cage.
