The LP issue of the 2 CD's of Satie's 'Slow Music' played by Jeroen van Veen. Erik Satie's music remains as eccentric as it was when composed in the early 20th century. Bizar, anti-romantic and ironic it stands in sharp contrast with the grandiloquent outpourings of the Late Romantics or the hyper sensitive drawings of the Impressionists. In his performance of slow piano music pianist Jeroen van Veen stretches the concept of slowness to it's extreme, creating a hallucinatory effect, a kind of Minimal Music avant la lettre. Satie's music appeals to audiences well beyond the traditional classical boundaries, and the issue on vinyl is an attractive bonus Side A for any Satie fan. No. 1. Lent Et Douloureux, No. 2. Lent Et Triste, No. 3. Lent Et Grave, Petite Ouverture À Danser, en y Regardant À Deux Fois, Passer, Encore, No. 1. Lent Et Douloureux (1896 Tuning), No. 1. Lent, No. 2. Avec Etonnement, No. 3. Lent, No. 4. Lent, No. 5. Modéré, No. 6. Avec Conviction Et Avec Une Tristesse Rigoureuse, Prélude de la Porte Héroïque Du Ciel, Vexations
