Gymnopédies

Erik Satie was an important member of the early 20-century French avant-garde, and is considered a forerunner of such later artistic movements as minimalism, repetitive music, and the Theatre of the Absurd, having friends in both Dada and Surrealist circles. His Gymnopédies are piano compositions written at the turn of the century and which use mild dissonances against more traditional harmony. They are contemplative and melancholy in character, and the first of these is often cited as the most relaxing piece of piano music ever written.

This arrangement is for horn in F with piano accompaniment.
