Three Gymnopedies by Erik Satie Arranged by D. Marlatt
(for Horn and Piano)
Reviewed By Sweetladymusic
Originally written for piano solo by the French composer Erik Satie, Three Gymnopedies are three short atmospheric pieces that share a 3/4 time signature as well as a common theme and structure.
Arranged by D Marlatt, these beautiful and ambient pieces are now available for Horn and piano and are technically easy to play. They are written in the mid register and they showcase the musical aspects of the Horn with it's clear cut phrases and dynamic range from a piano to a mezzo forte.
Having performed the first of these pieces and reviewing the composition as a whole, I find Three Gymnopedies appropriate to perform if you want a slow and reflective contrast to a technical piece for a recital. They are also suitable to perform as background music or for occasions such as weddings. Each of the Gymnopedies can be performed as a whole or as separate pieces.
