Erik Satie Gymnopedie 1 & 2 Olga Scheps

[@davidkyle5017]

I've known this piece since i was in single digits, and at 61 it remains one of my favorite pieces of music of any genre for all these years.

[@luvjisoo-cd7dn]

hopefully you can still listen to it when you’re on your triple digits, this piece will never get old

[@user-mk7yw2jc3p]

Me too, but I don’t remember from where or what movie? Can you help a layman out here with a reference?

[@luvjisoo-cd7dn]

@@user-mk7yw2jc3p, I discovered this song in a Japanese movie, this piece may be in a lot of movies so it’s quite hard to know from what movie you’re talking about

[@luvjisoo-cd7dn]

@@user-mk7yw2jc3p I hope you find the movie you are looking for 💗

I was introduced to this piece while viewing the Queen’s Gambit. Love at first listen.

She moves *and* plays like a gentle wave, a beautiful spirit to see and hear, truly gracious.

[@joeyrussano1296]

i agree

Yezza

[@Vizreaty]

I agreed. It’s very gentle, soothing and calming, like a soft breeze that caress your face as you stand still while bathe in the warmth of the sun rays.

[@danilob9006]

Watching and listening takes me back to my university days when I dated a girl who majored in piano and violin.... I would sit in the practice room and do my math and physics while she played... she liked having me there to listen and I liked her as well as her music. I always envied people who have the talent to play either instrument. But those were and are still great memories.

[@asdf7219]

Yeah I've seen this comment on 20 other videos :)

[@OperaBuff1935]

Ryan, I do the same thing. Pieces of music, whether they be piano or other instrument, symphonic, choral, opera or operetta (I sang choral music for 31 years and sang in 32 opera and operetta choruses) bring up memories and I will comment on them just as this gentleman does about memories of listening to his college girl friend. Try it sometime. You'll like it. :-)

[@paoloduilio]

Yes, listening to the music is a great moment, but it must be made afterwards. Eventually the poor talented girl got tired of beeing neglected, that's why she's now just a memory.

[@riggityraff]

utter SIMP

@@OperaBuff1935 I meant the exact comment with the wording.

[@wokwithwong]

I was inspired by Olga to learn Gymnopediie 1, 2 and 3. Took me 5 months to learn from scratch and memorized all 3 pieces. I play/practice the Gymnopedies daily to maintain my zen and sanity.

[@irinabold]

Is it hard?

[@wokwithwong]

@@irinabold Practice, practice and more practice....daily!

[@nominalsofar3831]

Me too! I currently have about 80% of No.1 technically there (Work to do on dynamics!) Playing it every day, will learn No.2 afterwards too. Beautiful.

[@probablygraham]

I don't know of anything so close to perfection as Olga Scheps playing Erik Satie. It leaves me with tears streaming down my face.

[@stargazer2258]

You’re simping, this is not that great at all actually, her tempo is too fast

[@MikeM91320]

What an incredible performance. I love the passion she adds while playing. Just took up piano at age 61 and discovered this song. One of the most beautiful pieces I have every heard and luckily I found a beginner version.

[@beelzebubbalicious]

Perfection. Doesn’t get any better than this. Thank you for that performance.

[@sitarnut]

So happy you said this....few equal her.....this is pure bliss. Suspect Frank Glazer's interpretation is worth a listen, too. Peace from Texas.

[@shin-i-chikozima]

Great days when Olga shines brightly and fills us with longing and joy！ We will not forget Olga‘s great and shining days

[@jairfitness]

I cried seeing this in a video I couldn’t imagine watching this and listening in real life this songs is such a maestro of art a piece of beauty.

[@johnnyjazzman]

This is terrific BUT there is an error on the second Gymnopedie - the melody line should be inverted when the main theme is repeated. But this is so nicely played that it scarcely matters.

plays it too fast its supposed to be slower

[@ernestomatalsol6807]

Educated people.

[@teppeyyamada-scriba7310]

It seems to me, Satie is too small for her. I cannot understand why she plays Satie, like a sea slug without bone and muscle.

[@guyfaux1494]

Teppey , sorry you don't understand Erik Satie.

[@darren.davies3957]

Teppey Yamada-Scriba ?????????????

[@BPoweredLove]

"enter"... lol Something lost in translation, in a funny way

[@BPoweredLove]

But Guy Faux is right, Satie didn't write music about technical ability. He wrote with beauty in mind. This piece isn't supposed to be a "beginner" piece. Even though it is slow and appears technically basic, it takes skill to play this with the subtleties correctly.

[@sergiovillagran9559]

Nice .. beatifull.. just SOVIÉTICO

[@holyshitdude2283]

Shoot out to the 37 people who downvoted it. Yeah, I agree with you. This is awful.
