[fleros123]

[Sarah20461]

@pkhail67 yup, agree =)

[fleros123]

[perla0712]

this soundtrack is just mind relaxing.

[LordArsehat]

Gary Numan did an amazing cover. It features Dennis Haines on piano with some gorgeous analogue strings over the top as the main melody. It's fantastic and as good as the original IMHO.

[BluDevil93]

I totally agree with you there mate!

[kcallen78]

[fleros123]

[aaronkehl]

[fleros123]

great!

This composition is played as a backdrop in the film Man on Wire, when Phillipe Petit(?) is walking on the wire between the WTC Two Towers. It is beautifully placed. Besides, the music is simply sublime.

[fleros123]

really? I havent seen the film yet :)

[jmometzger]

i completely agree. probably my favorite part of a beautiful film

[RooseyJ]

@Orynsbelt That's where I'd heard it before! It's been bugging me for ages. Thanks a bunch, may have to watch that film again some time :)

[fleros123]

@Orynsbelt I've seen the film recently and its very good indeed!

[daysebc]

He directly influeced Debussy's Impressionism, as well as Ravel, Stravinsky and Poulenc, all of who admired him,

Satie's style of short phrases repeated over and over, with subtle variations in colour and harmony These three beautiful pieces for solo piano are calming, reflective, ethereal, relaxing, soothing, and elegant. . If played as it is intended, the texture of this piece is as smooth as silk.

[gankness]

[Iamreallynervous]
