Satie: 9 Children's Pieces

Description

Satie was a somewhat eccentric French composer whose harmonic innovations had considerable influence on later composers. His piano compositions may at first appear rather insubstantial, but their subtle simplicity displays a real poetic gift. Thesethree groups of pieces all written in 1913, are deceptively easy and are ingeniously devised to make full and basic use of the five fingers of each hand.
