Sketches of Satie


Sketches of Satie, 2000/2002.
Erik Satie (1866-1925) - Peças (pianísticas) arranjadas para flauta e violão

Robert Orledge nos diz no Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians:

When considering any piece by Satie, the following key passages from his compositional aesthetic (formulated retrospectively in 1917) should be borne in mind:
"Do not forget that the melody is the Idea, the outline; as much as it is the form and the subject matter of a work. The harmony is an illumination, an exhibition of the object, its reflection … If there is form and a new style of writing, there is a new craft … Great Masters are brilliant through their ideas, their craft is a simple means to an end, nothing more. It is their ideas which endure … The Idea can do without Art".

Este CD é uma dica do excelente site P.Q.P. Bach, que já mencionei aqui mais de uma vez. Bem, o guitarrista Steve Hackett (aqui tocando violão) é o conhecido axeman do Genesis, e John, seu irmão flautista, toca muito.
