Mr. Satie by Louis Landon - solo piano

“Mr. Satie” is a tribute to the great composer, Erik Satie. When I first heard his piece, Gymnopedie #1, I was impressed by its beauty and simplicity. That was years before I became a solo piano artist and composer. I loved the 3/4 time and the vibe of the piece. It was a breath of fresh air as compared to a lot of the contemporary classical compositions that were available during Satie’s time. Even though I used 3/4 time as well, I went for a more energetic piece here, but I still think that my tribute still reflects the positivity and whimsy that is included in Gymnopedie #1. I think that it also captures how I felt when I first heard Erik Satie’s work.
