This 1916 ballet, created in collaboration with Jean Cocteau, Léonide Massine and Pablo Picasso, was hailed as Satie’s "cubist manifesto." Stripped of subjective emotion, the work removes basic fragments of melody and simple harmonies from their conventional associations and recasts them in unexpected but logical patterns, much as cubist painters exploded familiar forms into unexpected configurations. A handsomely bound, inexpensive full score for musicians, students, and music lovers alike.

Parade: the Ballet by Erik Satie: Full Score,
By dame ethel (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Parade in Full Score (Paperback)
Parade is a rather unconventional ballet with music by Erik Satie. I'm very glad to have found this score as I never imagined I would be able to purchase Satie's Parade in notated form at such a reasonable price.
Some Details: This score is essentially a republication of the edition published by Salabert, Paris, in 1917, with some added introductory material. The introductory material for this Dover edition includes: - Table of Contents (English and French) - A list of instrumentation (English and French) & the abbreviations used - A glossary of the French terms used in the score - Introductory notes by Victor Rangel-Ribeiro - A note by Georges Auric (translated from the original Salabert publication) I haven't found many errors but one very obvious typo struck me when I opened page 12 and 13. Both are missing the vertical line at the left hand side that joins the staves together to make a system, so it looks like there are four systems per page when there should only be one. Other than this, I haven't noticed anything too iffy. The font is quite interesting with very full note heads. It might be a bit hard to read - sometimes the print is a little blurred, but, seeing as it is a reasonable size, I haven't had any trouble making out what the notes/ expression markings/ etc. should be.
