Gnossienne No.1 by Erik Satie Performed by Norchestra

[@Birzo754]

It's so sad a piece of art like this has so little views. Congrats for the work. Literraly the best interpretation of that song I've ever seen. I gave life to a piece that was already magestic in it's original form.

[@JayHendricksWorld]

It is absolutely amazing!

[@Bhaerts]

You get the magic. In a lot of different ways. Great respect. And Satie smiles wherever he is now

[@christosliatsos9854]

The best gnossienne no1 ever. thank you from Greece

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thanks a lot, that is amazing to hear, we’re really happy you liked it so much, it was a lot of fun recording this improvised version of Satie..! :)

[@stepitup5409]

Beautifully done! You should be proud. All of you!

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you very much, yes we like our version of Gnossienne, it is fun to play with music and to be spontaneous and improvise over such strong and beautiful music!

[@vanadour33]

Superbe, la modernité de Satie, sublimée par cette interprétation !

[@dominicsisinni75]

Always start my day with this piece. Not enough words to describe how great it is. Satie would be proud to hear his work performed so brilliantly.

[@sw9wong]

This ensemble opens the door to a totally different world of Satie music! An amazing performance!

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you so much Susanna, that is really nice to hear! :)

[@nanjingmonkey467]

cant believ you managed to write drums for gnossienne, and they fit perfectly too

[@solomale2156]

rather subjective. personally i think it doesn't fit

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thanks, we’re happy you like the drums, we like them too! However they are not written, everything played on each instrument is improvised except from when we play the melody! :) But we listen to each other and the drummer is really good at following the flow of the music and how to blend in in a very musical way! :)

[@DR-nh6oo]

@@AcousticLandscapes My thought exactly on reading this comment, that surely the drums, as the whole piece, were felt rather than written. Satie's music keeps me going....

[@bituin5908]

I like how this changes the mood of the song, but in a good way. Like we’re learning a new perspective in the same story, a hidden one.

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you, yes, good music definitely has some hidden layers in them waiting to be discovered by great listeners like yourself! :)

[@randomrainbow4479]

This is so beautiful it made me forget words.

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you very much!

[@BJ-pl1je]

Oh my gosh, I love this! I much prefer this Erik Satie piece being played by strings instead of the original piano. I hear so much soul this way. What a delight to have found this.

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you very much, yes I think by using creativity and improvisation there is so much that can be done to renew the music from the classical composers and keep it fresh and interesting! We’re happy that you liked our version! :)

[@shin-i-chikozima]

Their wonderful performances are the acme of admiration, tribute , and emotion, and comfortable to the ear and the mind From Tokyo of the Land of the Rising Sun🇯🇵

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thanks a lot for the kind words, we really appreciate that! :) Maybe one day we will play in Tokyo or Japan, that would have been really nice!

Это бесподобно. Невероятное исполнение. Просто потрясающе. Спасибо

[@lambokhutabarat1100]

Great composition. Thank you for playing this wonderfuly

[@MrYuri-iy4im]

Playing this piece with orchestra hits different

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Yes, at least it is a new version with other instruments and spontaneous improvisation to try to give something unique to the piece!

[@Qu0thTheRaven]

my new favorite rendition of gnossienne no 1

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Wow, thank you so much, we’re happy that our spontaneous version with lots of improvisation I actually helps with making the piece even more fresh and interesting! :)

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you very much, we just tried to be spontaneous and convey this incredibly powerful music in a creative and honest way! :)

[@boyanaskrbic]

A version much closer to what was the inspiration for Satie, Slavic music, in turn inspired even earlier by Turkish music. A cultural mix that exists to this day.

This...... Is absolutely fantastic..... So hauntingly wonderful.... Well done to the three of you...... Oh by the way.... Why is the fret board on the guitar so wide? It seems wider than the usual fret board that you see, or play on a guitar.

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thank you very much! The fretboard is so wide because the Brahms guitar has 8 strings, one higher and one lower in addition to the middle six strings! :)

[@nigelbevan8449]

Piano .. please!

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Pianoversions you can find everywhere, the Brahms guitar and Viola da Gamba is part of what makes our version so unique and different from everything else out there! But yes, in the Revolutionary Etyde by Chopin we use the piano since that is anyway totally impossible to play on guitar! :)

[@gauravcha]

❤

[@markgordon4368]

Weird custom instruments ensemble 😉

[@nooyeees93]

Seems like the guitarist is a cellist!

[@AcousticLandscapes]

He is a guitarist and pianist mainly, but also play the cello occasionally.. :) Actually the cello position on 8-string guitar makes it easier for the left hand to play big chords that require lots of pressure, so if you’re into big chords and long stretches, try the cello position on any guitar, also on 6-string it will be easier.., but takes maybe a week to get used to!

[@nooyeees93]

@@AcousticLandscapes thank you for this info. btw this is arrangement is so nice although the slow rythme. Currently im trying to learn recuerdos de la Alhambra and im facing some difficulties, with the cello position im sure i would make funny sounds :😅 but i will try it .. sounds cool!!

[@kien9]

Loved this, however the drums were too loud 🤷‍♂️

[@AcousticLandscapes]

We like the drums, and the drummer allows space for everything so I don't think it was too loud, another drummer could easily have ruined this, but not Tore, he is way to sensitive and musical to let any music be ruined by drums! :)

[@agenttexx]

Needs finger cymbals, triangle, and a belly dancer playing tambourine...

La batterie est vraiment inutile, le reste est original, un peu trop vert pour du Satie. Le tout se laisse écouter.

[@TheSantiagoMatamoros]

Such a nice rendition, but why with percussion? That doesn't fit at all!

[@AcousticLandscapes]

Thanks, Norchestra is a trio with me playing the Brahms guitar and piano, Kjetil playing the Viola Da Gamba and double bass and Tore playing the drums, and we like how he plays the drums in a very musical way! Many of the comments in this video here also enjoy the drums so the opinions are divided but we like to play together as a group all three of us, great fun! :) All the best, Alf!
