They've put out some wonderfully relaxing albums. I've got at least one new age type album with Satie's music.<br /><br />Sue -- Ravel, Debussy, and Satie were all a part of the same arts scene in Paris. I'm sure they greatly influenced one another.<br /><br />Susan R. -- Good for writing or just dreaming.<br /><br />Yolanda-- Satie doesn't have a big catalog of music, but I think what's out there is wonderful.<br /><br />Lee<br />Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020898804375958182.post-68345013144639860092014-02-22T09:21:11.955-08:002014-02-22T09:21:11.955-08:00Beautiful, and no I was not familiar with it - Tha...Beautiful, and no I was not familiar with it - Thank you!Yolanda Renéehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09085436784133103221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4020898804375958182.post-49988237176708373692014-02-20T13:35:48.479-08:002014-02-20T13:35:48.479-08:00oh lovely - I only knew gymnopedie no. 1.

We have recently been bombarded by one of the Gymnopedies on Radio Three as a trailer to culture at the beginning of WW1.

I...that was very pretty, the song and the visuals. I am familiar with one of the Gymnopedies movements but I can't remember which one. I have it on one of my new age albums from the Windham Hill label I think. <br /><br />I like Windham Hill music overall, it's pretty 'dreamy'. I'm a fan of composer Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring, and I love Mozart. Of course any Grateful Dead jam does it for me too.JoJohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18165375435543044068noreply@blogger.com
