    I was on a bus trip a few years ago and we went to a recreated Pioneer Village that was decorated for Autumn/Halloween. I happened to walk past a dimly lit barn with candles in the window and music playing. The sound was haunting to me so I stood there listening. Suddenly, a figure dressed in muslin cloth with her face covered with a veil slowly approached the entrance and was swaying to this tune. I was mesmerized by this. I didn't know what was playing and it took me a while to find it on UA-cam. It was Gnossienne No. 1.

    Few people know the meaning of Gnossienne. This is the explanation I give when I teach them this song (my explanation). Gnose in French (from Greek gnosis) means knowledge ("connaissance", feminine noun) and "sienne", feminine adjective for "sien" means oneself. Gnossienne is the knowledge every one makes out for oneself.
    So it's an introspection on how you express yourself musically (but it works for language too) and how you should choose to express yourself. All the Satie's annotations on the score show this. They are really important and often not respected because few people understand them. "Très luisant" means "Show off" (what you probably do at the beginning when you play). "Questionnez": Question yourself about what you're doing. "Du bout de la pensée" refers to an achieved form of thinking. It's your thought just before speaking or playing and it's your natural thought coming from yourself. "Postulez en vous-même" : Think in yourself among several possibilities and postulate, make a decision. And finally "Sur la langue": on the tip of your tongue, what you are going to play, after a thorough thinking, but without being completely sure, because nobody can be sure of one's knowledge.
    Thank you Mr. Satie for this music and philosophy lesson !

    I was listening to this song while i was cleaning my house.
    Sorry if it sounds dramatic, but it was such a strange feeling, that i immediately wanted to write a comment.
    A stressful and boring feeling. Doing something ordinary and normal, while inside, deep down in the heart, there this sadness and anxiety, mixed with gratitude and comfort.
    A real conflict.
    Grateful for what you have, and sad for what you can't do or have. Stuck in a loop, waiting for a miracle of fate, for a chance to change, to be better.

    my favorite piece by satie. its just so, like, mysterious, with the placement of the notes, especially for me the b naturals placed over the f minor chords. wonderful, the slower tempo really makes it all around better. what a genius maniac satie was. the thing with this piece is that its quite repetitive, so its up to the performer to make it sound like it never repeats.

    Erik Satie
    On most mornings after he moved to Arcueil, Satie would return to Paris on foot, a distance of about ten kilometres, stopping frequently at his favourite cafés on route. Accoring to Templier, "he walked slowly, taking small steps, his umbrella held tight under his arm. When talking he would stop, bend one knee a little, adjust his pince-nez and place his fist on his lap. The he would take off once more with small deliberate steps."
    When he eventually reached Paris he visited friends, or arranged to meet them in other cafés by sending pneumatiques. Often the walking from place to place continued, focussing on Montmarte before the war, and subsequently on Montparnasse. From here, Satie would catch the last train back to Arcueil at about 1.00am, or, if he was still engaged in serious drinking, he would miss the train and begin the long walk home during the early hours of the morning. Then the daily round would begin again.
    Roger Shattuck, in conversations with John Cage in 1982, put forward the interesting theory that "the source of Satie's sense of musical beat--the possibility of variation within repetition, the effect of boredom on the organism--may be this endless walking back and forth across the same landscape day after day . . . the total observation of a very limited and narrow environment." During his walks, Satie was also observed stopping to jot down ideas by the light of the street lamps he passed.

      Ben Seni Anlıyorum. Ben bu Müzigi defalarca dinledim, ve halen dinliyorum. Her duydugumda Kalbim ve Ruhuma güzel duygular giriyor. Bazen Ağlıyorum bazen derin Düsüncelere giriyorum. Hayatımda en güzel Müziklerden birisi bu.

Bakışlarımı doğan güneşi terketmiş geceye doğru çevirirken aynı zamanda dalgaların ayaklarıma çarpmasına şahit oluyorum. Ay’ı kapatan bulutlar, şiddetli olmayan ama durmak bilmeyen rüzgar ve dalgaların korkunç gürültüsü olan biten her şeyi umursamadığımı anlamamı sağlıyor. Bu parça bana dağılmış hisleri ve sona ermiş bir savaşı anlatıyor.

      Like Spag said, I think it better represents a character slowly going insane. The character Sigma from the game OverWatch had his mind shattered after a terrible accident. He went mad, and he constantly heard piano music wherever he went. The creepy thing is how similar it sounds to Gnossienes No.1: ua-cam.com/video/8eh9glWVtu8/v-deo.html
