A very different arrangement, nicely done. The speed is just right. The difficulty of playing all these instruments in harmony takes a great deal of patience, experience, and tenacity. Thank you for sharing.
few souls understand satie. i love the instrument choice. it brings it to life in a different perspective. i wonder how fast or slow satie would play the same music today.
Glad I came across this. I just love this subtle and gentle interpretation- I’m so used to listening it in piano or violin form. The violin makes it incredibly sad. The piano is more “every day” but this, this is stunning and peaceful.
You inspired me with this performance to start playing classical music on my chromatic! I had to play in a higher register, though, as I have a 12 hole chromatic that is not a bass one. I think I could reach the lower register without a bass model if I had a 16 hole chromatic. I think someday, if I want to continue with classcial, that is what I'll have to get. Satie is just perfect for chromatic harmonica. The music is so soulful and melancholy, and that can be captured so well on a chromatic harp, espeically in a lower key. Thanks for the inspiriation! And thanks for the detailed notes for the performance, with the haromnicas used being detailed, and the keys, etc.
Listening to this, i can see that Satie most certainly intended to set the Gnossienne for exactly this orchestration. :-) But where to buy a koto, back then? A Piano was easyly available (he had three pianos in his tiny appartment, the three instruments were litterally stacked upon each other. That is not a joke. Beauuuutifull, sensual arrangement of this thoughtful piece of music. Congratulations.
this is beautiful in a scary way. like a graveyard in a cold winter night. and if i ever met mr satie, i would immediately pull a gun ,and call for help. those eyes...
Why this doesn't have 100 mil views??? I got goosebumps listening to this interpretation
Because everyone else's watching a cat chase a ball of wool.... and LOVIN IT.
This is yet another haunting interpretation of the boundless possibilities in this piece
It seems like this was written for koto. The scale fits, the phrasing fits, the mysterious and exotic melody. That hits the spot.
Bel arrangement, Satie, là haut doit être heureux d'entendre toutes ces variations sur sa gnossienne !

this songs tone fits the instrument so well it's unsettling.
I didn't know, but actually needed this in my life. Thank you, youtube algorythm, very cool !
What a Wonderful assembly giving freshness to a perennial

Lost for words here!!
C'est beau ! I guess that is what comes to my mind. C'est juste beau.
Wish somebody would arrange the Gymnopedie No. 1 in an equally sensual, tasteful score.
It's really soothing to this wonderful performance,
But
I feel a loneliness of a hundred years
Bravo! Amazing arrangement!!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
This is beautiful...
never expected Gnossienne 1 to sound this good on the Koto, such amazing emotions...
This simple and graceful masterpiece is off the charts
Gnossienne No 1 Must be the music that leads souls to heaven
This is ethereal ❤️
Really magic.
I am addicted to this piece of music.
wunderschöne kombination
Danke, Balz.

✨🧸✨
Ethereal.
Koto is very similar to Santoor
That flute playing very nice but wrong flute for that time the modern flute was invented in 1847.
asian satie
Das sind so geschlafene männer sie können dort am knoten ihre khatti spielen
beaucoup la massacre cette gnossienne, sans sa sobriété, elle perd son aura, son mysticisme.
bass player ruins it
Ugh, you ruined to poor song
May this new year coming as delicate, smooth, lovely as this. Une bonne année à tous.
