Pour en avoir entendu des dizaines de versions, je dois dire (écrire, au fait) que celle d'Alice, mon fantasme absolu, est réellement la plus belle, douce, aérienne, introspective, juste, sensible et sensuelle. Wow! Je fond, littéralement. Elle survole l'esprit de Paris du début du XXe siècle, son romantisme et un esthétique d'une noblesse inégalée. Simplement divin.
Sorry about that typo Sara-Alice Ott Sort of like Eric signing his name with a “K” instead of the sea his mother used to his name. I’m just not use to hyphenated names or what they even mean. Your ability to replicate the sound pleases me more than you could imagine & for that I thank you dearly.
She is a painter here, we must see through hearing. The choice of tempo for the first Gnossienne is entirely convincing; she gives the famed first Gymnopédie only the motion needed to unroll the canvas (or is it a scroll) of Satie's few but perfectly chosen notes; the pace she finds to unveil the tthird Gnossienne's poised sadness, shown in the brief ascents immediatedly countered by the same notes in mirrored descent, all makes a picture of a heroic twilight, a gentle but deeply felt farewell.
Alice Sara seems such a delicate beauty, and that beauty permeates her music. This performance of Satie's masterpieces shows magnificent sensitivity for such a young pianist.
Mani che producono suoni divini che fanno vibrare il cuore. Grazie Alice. La meraviglia ti possiede. La grazia e le emozioni che regali sono incommensurabili.
Ich liebe es Satie zu hören. Diese Interpretation der Gnossienne 1, Gymnopedie 1 und Gnossienne 3 speziell von Frau Alice-Sara Ott ist für mich die gefühlvollste und intensivste Darbietung auf UA-cam. Ich habe mir soviele Interpretationen angehört, aber ihr Spiel ist genial. Dankeschön, dass Sie für uns spielen.😊
I discovered Satie through Orson Welles in 1977. The Immortal Story is a poignant little movie that is like a fairy tale (with a bit of darkness, though). The soundtrack of Satie was the perfect cherry on the cake creating the right atmosphere: surreal, but intense. Since then I looked for a performance that could give back the feeling of the movie. Finally Alice came with this performance, slow, subtle, intriguing, intimate. Thanks Alice, all my gratitude. What a lovable pianist you are.
As I get older I listen to Satie to meditate when I make a wrong decision and calm myself so it doesn't happen again, it's so calm and beautiful just like the eye of a hurricane
Dear Alice, dear "PIANIST ???" You already dress for a fashion magazine "VOGUE"! When will you get naked for "PLAYBOY"? Alice Sara Ott - Show & PR industry, money making machine!

No, nothing so calculated she says. ... “There’s no commercial reason for performing in bare feet.

You don’t have to be educated to enjoy classical music, you get educated by listening to it.” ... “That’s why for me it is so important to be a really good musician rather than someone who just looks good on stage,” she muses, “Because then I am replaceable.

@@mariodisarli1022 Better that she wear sackcloth and ashes? The "Ball Gown " is an exaggeration as most women pianists have always been in gowns. She is demure, has never been an exhibitionist, such as those wearing mini dresses or clothes accenting breasts. "Her unique MUSICAL personality will keep her on top". What classical soloist does not have " quirks"? Of the many musicians I know, have played with ( both pros and amateur) including those who are Julliard grads have quirks, it may be the reason they chose a musical career. Her playing speaks for itself. She is a pleasure to watch, mostly for her concentration and musical passion , communication with the conductor and orchestra. Her phrasing is impeccable. Are you a pianist? Do you play an instrument? Are you aware of how difficult it is for classical musicians to reach her skill level and have a career? Jealous of her feminine beauty? I think your comment says more about you. LISTEN to her, don't watch if it upsets you so much.
DiSarli has an obsession with posting dozens of times on every appearance by Miss Ott, Buniatishvili, Mutter, Wang or any classical musician who is beautiful and does not dress in a potato sack. My guess is that he's a frustrated castrato.
Satie...autore misconosciuto all'avanguardia per la sua epoca...veramente intenso...infatti molti suoi brani sono usati come colonna sonora in film famosi...grande interpretazione della Ott...non e' facile suonare al meglio Satie...
Absolutamente maravillosa interpretación. La mejor pianista que he escuchado por lejos. No es nada fácil interpretar a Satie con en tempo y el volumen adecuado ya que a su vez tiene muchos acordes menores.
Le temps suspendu.... des ronds dans l'eau - un visage de femme qui se reflète dans la vitre d'un train, comme un souvenir - Alice-Sara qui navigue sur un océan infini - merci infiniment....
Esta pianista de herencia diversa...de Japón y de Alemania tenía que ser...trasluce en esta música especial del Paris de Eric Satie en los centros nocturnos de la ciudad luz...en la transfiguración de los atardeceres en oscuridad...pues Satie participa en aquellos balbuceos del impresionismo plastico y musical...con Debussy y Ravel...! En Eric Satie no se trata de acordes lentos sino de una conversión sonora a través de las luces cambiantes...mezcladas de sonidos misteriosos...lentos y mezclados con los colores de los pintores impresionistas de aquel momento...especialmente Monet...y Manet...en conjunción con una música de acordes coloreados...como arcoiris...por los atardeceres desfallecientes...!

I too admire the person of Alice Sara Ott, and she is certainly a most talented pianist. Tho' not the complete virtuoso that a Yuja Wang is, I find it interesting that in artistic ways they are opposites (tho' both nice and talented, beautiful young women and serious musicians). If Alice has a fault interpretively, it is with too slow tempos', as in this Satie. Yuja's biggest fault can be her too fast tempi. Now, if both were prone to doing this all the time, it would be a real negative. But they are too intelligent as pianists for this-the majority of their performances are well within the composer's intentions. And by saying 'fault', that is indeed an interpretive choice that many may actually like. With Satie (or sometimes even Chopin), being leisurely most certainly creates a mood appropriate to the music if not always the notation. If I had a choice, I will always choose mood...
i do like these pieces but they always seem to be for people who just dip into classical piano and go no further. if you like this please do yourself a favour and listen to some chopin or lizst
Genius. In place and in time, anticipating barbarianism caused by a system based on unceasing growth of power. Emptiness in His music corresponding to Chopin's ideas, but Satie is empty. Beauty but empty- in purpose. He represent circle of drained culture. He is arrogant. He treats Music as a form of play-utility. He takes seriously tutorship of His fellow friend Karol Marx and He explain in it to listeners. Music is no matter, Your live is no matter. Lets make money flow. Take a listen a piece of Chopin and You will find something different. - God-Freedom-Life. ps. Your performance of this piece is high above average - seriously.
Do you realise when this music was composed? How musical historians/critics view him, how many musicians he influenced? An Elegy for capitalism? Did capitalism die?

This is the best interpretation of Satie's work I've ever heard
vraiment une pure expressivité dans la retenue, moments rares où la musique joue avec l'interprète à force égale...
The slow and meditative pace is evocative. Like taking a stroll along Parisian streets being mesmerized and seized by deep thoughts.

Yes, were all in love with her, you'll to wait your turn.
Her feel for this piece is mesmerizing
The way she plays is so elegant and it's just so beautifully haunting to listen to. An amazing performance of songs by an amazing composer.
She is the only pianist I know who can play Eric Satie's music in the correct way. Absolutely amazing!
Yes! It is very challenging to play Satie w/ just the right touch and tempo, and Alice succeeds very nicely.
Makes wonder about her actual name ... Alice Sara Ott ( Leslie )
Sorry about that typo Sara-Alice Ott

Alice doesnt play the piano- she caresses each and every note of the musical piece until all its essence yields the sweet refrain.
Bravo Alice !

Perhaps one of the best things I’ve read on a comments section. Thank you.

Nella sua immensa semplicità Eric Satie è un genio e Sara ne è l’interprete eccezionale.
No one plays Satie like Sara.
Mesmerizing interpretation. It’s how I always wanted to hear this piece played. What a rich and complex soul is this young artist!

This is the first time that I heard Satie as a song writer. He uses the structure of Jazz ballad to hang his melodies on. Brilliant.
Ich war schon auf vielen Konzerten von Alice.
Aber jedes Mal fand ich sie genial und wunderschön!
Absolutely wonderfully played,
and filmed.
Perfecto, directo al alma, Gracias Sara. Vida eterna desde Colombia
So meditative and contemplative. Like a brook in the forest . . . then someone sneezes in the hall 😃

Isn't the piano out of tune?
gänsehaut
She's one of the best but slow down, please. This rushed through pace spoils the feeling of solitude and expansiveness that Satie has.
I wish I were her Rubik's cube...
Are you sure?
how much slower can she go? we'll fall asleep...... zzz lovely reallly
is the piano out of tune ?
👏👏
No, not at all. There may be some phasing due to recording live that may cause that. Sound like a close up mic and an audience mic mixed.
Es inadmisible que un piano Steinway de concierto de esa calidad esté desafinado.
it still souds like a work, and i am sorry - Chopin was a capitalist. Rich kid with no talent only money.
