My music video for Erik Satie's "Gymnopedie No. 1". For those interested in the recording, this is from an EMI Classics twin-disc set called "Piano Dreams - Music to Inspire."

  • Keith, are you the one playing this piece? Just curious because... your version is beyond perfection!

  • No, no, I don't have that level of talent. I can play by ear decently, but that's about it. It's from an EMI Classics twin-disc set called "Piano Dreams - Music to Inspire".

  • This piece is multifaceted. It connotes different things for different people -- that is its power. However I think we can all agree that it, by all definitions of the word, beautiful.

  • Only 51,632 views? Wow, people these days don't appreciate real music. I know this video could be easily bumped up into the 500,000's.

  • This has such a beautiful energy. Sitting in an easy chair with a hot cup of tea, looking out the window as rain gently falls.... perfect for contemplation. This is one of my favorite pieces by Debussey.

  • The perfect tempo.

  • Satie & Debussy both amazing pianist.

  • Hoy vi un fantasma..... :(

  • The communication between Arwabella and thegreaterbavore is quite interesting (and funny too). At first I was inclined to think that they were two people not on the same wavelength, but it's actually Arwabella who perhaps did not read that all thegreaterbavore meant to say was that it was someone other than Satie PLAYING the piano. It is indeed very difficult to make people listen to what you say (not what they think you say).... ah it's a tough world out there. :)

  • @Arwabella That's nice, but good luck finding a way to purchase or download the music without knowing the name of the performer.

  • @corepotentializreal

    Which is exactly what I feel right now =(

  • @corepotentializreal I've always felt that way every time I listen to this piece...you put it into words perfectly. An empty sadness is correct.

  • definitively describes my feeling at the moment..

  • @thegreaterbavore Well I'm sure this is a Satie work, and it's known as his everywhere, but you're free to think that it's not. And yes I know there's a huge difference between "performer" and "composer", I just didn't want this piece to be associated with anyone else beside its original creator, that's all.
