Springtime in Paris

Online Audio
Music of Satie & Les Six


"We must bring about a music which is like furniture . . . a music that is, which will be part of the noises in the environment, will take them into consideration. I think of it as melodious, softening the noises of the knives and forks; not deafening them, not imposing itself." - Erik Satie
