    You have -no- idea how long i've been looking (and thus waiting) for something like this!! I can't thank you enough. Satie spoke to me so many years ago, he's the sole reason i taught myself the basics of piano, to be able to play his gorgeously twisted and often unpredictable twists and turns. Many composers/pianists I've tried to talk to about him (in the hopes of some analytical breakthrough) tend to brush him off as simplistic or even naïve, but they are so missing the point. So thank you for showing respect to his genius and sharing the construct of his musical mannerisms with me and with the world. Liked & subscribed, looking forward to more of these!

    One thing is missing from your analysis!
    Extremely poetic and quirky interpretation notes such as (approximative translations):
    Du bout de la pensee ( From the tip of the thought)
    Avec une tristesse rigoureuse ( With a rigorous sadness)
    Tres luisant (Very shimmery)
    Conseillez-vous soigneusement (Councel yourself thoroughly)
    Munissez-vous de clairvoyance ( Supply yourself with clairvoyance)
    De maniere a obtenir un creux ( So as to obtain a hollow)
    And my favorite:
    Ouvrez la tete (Open the head)
    However surrealistic some may sound, they are actually very accurate descriptions of the ambiance required.

    • @YouTube5vck5
      @YouTube5vck5 4 роки тому +7

      canzo0378 no, he’s definitely not just bragging about his French. It makes sense for him to use French since, ya know, Satie was French. And a lot of his pieces utilize French on the sheet music as a way of telling the pianist how to play it (Gymnopedie No. 1 says “Lent et douloureux” basically means slow and painful). Either you’re making a joke or you’re being serious. If you’re being serious, you really should think about why he’s using French in his comment

    • @orangefoxable
      @orangefoxable 2 роки тому +1

      Nahre talks about this in a later video (Satie's "daily routine"), those comments are rather on the ironic side of things. Some can make sense in the context of playing but others like "conseillez-vous soigneusement" are more playful than anything in my opinion. A satiric guy who's music I enjoy very much :)

    Thank you very much for producing your videos. You're playing and insights are absolutely wonderful. Thanks for sharing. I am a blues musician and have been since 1955. But I'm also known for my improvisations. I taught myself how to play Blues piano, but I have listened to a lot of music, especially classical and world music in addition to Blues. I have been actively improvising all this time. Not only on Blues changes, but on very free form music. Some of the members of my bands have been leading members of new music programs at the University. I performed in front of thousands of people in totally improvised settings. Improvising is absolutely not a foreign thing for me. I would love to improvise with you someday. I don't know how that could ever happen, but I would welcome the opportunity. Thanks again for all your dedication and generous revealing yourself to those of us on the internet.

  • @FrancisMaxino
    @FrancisMaxino 6 років тому +9

    It is not hard to sound like Satie, the Gymnopedies are predominantly quite simple and to emulate a Gymnopedie just use inversions and only occasionally play the tonic as bass in the left hand using a lot of sevenths and sixths and fourth chords and using these added tonalities as a bass anchor like the sixth instead of third or fifth of the quadrad or pentad. Resolving Suspensions on slow moving melodies that either walk up or down and describe broken chords for right hand melodies and that's about it. I think you are playing much too fast and rushing Satie, look at his tempo indication for Trois Gymnopedies, they are all Grave !

    What is so wonderful about a good music teacher, is the way the knowledge is conveyed to seem accessible. and as a guitarist, with a broad church of musical tastes, I am enthralled and inspired.

    Whoa! I just happened to come across your channel though UA-cam's IG while listening to Satie; he's my favorite composer and I didn't quite understand what I liked about his music, as I'm not really music literate. Thank you for this! This was informative, despite me not really understanding the technicalities. I look forward to watching your other videos.
    You stopped right before Gnossienne No. 1 got exciting; that was so frustrating haha.

    Also, that was an epic Happy Birthday tune.

    Your choices of visual representation are very well acomplished, your talent on the piano is very present and you are able to make it in a very didactic meaning. Being a 21-yo engineering stundent with just a little classic music knowledge, I felt very entertained and you made it very beautifully.
    A warm thank you from Portugal!

    These are so awesome! Your analysis is always so dead-on and enlightening, and your compositional skills in so many settings are super impressive as well. I’ve seen other people request composers, and I don’t want to inundate you with requests but a video breaking down Prokofiev could be really cool and, I think, up your alley.
    On a slightly different note, a composer who you may not know (or at least not very well) is Einojuhani Rautavaara. His piano concerti are spectacular and, to me, harmonically groundbreaking. He also has some awesome etudes and piano pieces which are easy to find on UA-cam. If you have the time, I’d really check him out!

    • @NahreSol
      @NahreSol  6 років тому +1

      Yes!! Will try to do one on Prokofiev one day for sure. And thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏 Also I've heard of Rautavaara but not in depth yet, thanks!!

    Indeed Satie is a very enigmatic composer because he is so simple, laconic and sophiticated at the same time.

    Wonderful Video. Such a great style of narrating. Subscribed with the bell after watching three videos in a row today.
    Always loved Eric Satie and Being There is one of my favorite films. The music and Peter Sellers dead-pan face seems to be intertwined for me.
    If you want to hear contemporary music of a similar mood you should try Dustin O´Halloran and the more people will listen to his older records, maybe he will finally release another record beside all the soundtracks he is working on lately...

    I was exposed to Satie thru the movie "About Schmidt". HIs music goes perfectly well with that movie like bread and butter. It brings out the total artistics that movies tries to convey. I felt in love with Satie from the angle of that movie. Next to enjoy Satie's music without any other 'accompany' will require some effort. I'd love to try. Thanks for the professional (music) education. Very helpful.
