Probably the Finest 4-Handed Satie...,
By Sébastien Melmoth (Hôtel d'Alsace, PARIS) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: 4 Handed Piano (Audio CD)
.
For those who want to go indepth in their search for the elusive Satie, his music for piano duet must not be overlooked. And for 4-handed Satie, this is probably the finest realizations we're likely to hear. Pascal Rogé is a very fine pianist; yet I feel he's slightly overlooked, when he should be actively sought out--espeically with the French literature. Seek: After the Rain...The Soft Sounds of Erik Satie ; and Satie: 3 Gymnopédies and Other Piano Works . (Although Erik Satie: Piano Works ; Satie: Gymnopédies No1-3; Petite ouverture à danser ; and Satie: Piano Music; Mélodies [includes DVD] are really good.) Much of Satie's 4-handed piano music bears the quiet dignity of his "popular" Gymnopédes, Gnossiennes, and Nocturnes. Some of it is a little more tempestuous--i.e., the Parade. Doubleplus bonus, this disc contains Satie's only little works for violin and piano. For those really interested in Satie, four recent discs are absolutely essential: Vexations ; Erik Satie: Musique de la Rose-Croix; Pages Mystiques; Uspud [Import] ; Socrate and Melodies . This disc seems to be out of print, so recommend it be obtained from a 3rd party vendor quickly. . |
