Nicely recorded (June 1992) Satie/Messe de Pauvres (17:13) performed by Christopher Bowers-Broadbent/organ from Gorecki/Satie/Milhaud/Bryars; ECM New Series 1495.
Well-recorded Satie?
I finally broke down a year or so ago and bought an Erik Satie disc to see if it was up my alley. Well it was and I've worn it out. It's one of those "Essential Classics" put out by Sony. Yeah, you know the series with the bright yellow "Why Wonder? Start Here!" sticker on the cover(who says advertising doesn't work?). Is there a definitve recording of Trois Gymnopedies and Trois Gnossiennes?

I like Steve Hackett's 'Sketches Of Satie'. Here is AMG review and song titles. |
