Erik Satie - Gnossienne No. 1
on: October 15, 2014, 09:08:30 PM
Hi everyone, this is my first ever posting here!

Just looking for some comments/feedback on this piece. I've been playing it for a while.
It is Erik Satie's first Gnossienne in F minor. Been playing piano for 18 months.

Recorded on a Mason and Hamlin Grand Piano (I prefer these 100x to Steinway, better touch and volume control with a very thick bass). Granted the piano is kind of decrepit and some of the notes sound bad.

Recorded with an old cell phone (working on this).

Feedback and comments welcome, please :)
