Saticity - my tribute to Erik Satie
on: October 21, 2015, 10:10:51 AM
hi Folks, Dont know how many of you guys were influenced as I was, by Satie? (not to mention Ravel, Debussy and Poulenc - what an era for French piano music!).

Recently, I wrote a new piece which, of all my music reminds me most of the music of Satie and so I gave it the name “Saticity” (I also intended a double meaning in the similarity to the word “satiety” carrying the meaning of satisfaction, sufficiency, and repletion).

Ive put together a video for my piece, and I found the perfect visual accompaniment when I discovered that Satie was friends with some amazing artists including Francis Picabia, Man Ray and Marcel Duchamp. So, please do have a look/listen and let me know what you think, warm wishes, Rich

Very nice piece! I am surprised that nobody have asked you for score so far.
