The truth about Satie

[@jpknijff]

I bet Satie would have absolutely loved it.

[@devontipp8317]

I wonder if the harpsichord would stay in tune long enough for a full performance ;) love this - thank you so much for sharing!

[@juemon]

Then it would sound more like Lucier's I'm sitting in a room.

[@philippefritsch1892]

Why shouldn't it keep less in tune? It's onlu a matter of precision.

[@korhonenmikko]

@@philippefritsch1892 Harpsichords go out of tune very easily and have to be tuned before each performance.

[@philippefritsch1892]

@@@korhonenmikko It all depends how they are being treated. A good harpsichord, even an antique one, keeps in tune quite well, unless it faces bad general conditions (changes in temperature and humidity etc.) A piano, in fact, isn't any better, but one doesn't notice it being out of tune, as in the case of a harpsichord.

@@philippefritsch1892 In fact, a piano is always out of tune.

This adds a whole new dimension of bizarre to an already bizarre composition. Thanks.

[@Jarchiporz]

This is GENIUS!! Bravo!! And I cannot believe that I was listening to another video that you uploaded, and Satie immediately came to my mind. And just right after that I burst into this!! 😍👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Les vexations bien tempérées

[@stephenweigel]

This is such a great twist on the piece

[@markgould9564]

It's certainly well inside Satie's idea to create something as meaningless as this - and the tuning suits it very well - the vexations are all the diminished triads unresolved - but that even a JI version adds something more vexing again :-)

absolutely perfect ! ！

[@marinarabini363]

This is absolutely perfect ! Good !!! Bravo !!!!

[@lorentzlossius771]

This feels like my mind after too many tequilas. 😎

[@jaegonekim]

wow it's truly logical

[@bifeldman]

Vexing.

[@veloopity]

wonderful

[@christopherburd9495]

This might take some getting used to.

[@aloisnostitz3747]

Beat like cattle for such an art

[@ejb7969]

Well, he did ask for it.

[@iOnlyGotOneFace]

It's Erik Satie! Not Eric!

[@wormswithteeth]

His real name. He change it to Erik. 😉

[@markokelly2494]

It's pronounced Froderick.

[@paulmartinez594]

It's actually Friedrich 😎🤏

[@shaalis]
