| Summary: | In his piano works especially, Erika Satie (1866-1925) was a witty musical caricaturist. The eccentric French composer loved to satirize academic rules in general and the impressionistic titles of Debussy´s compositions in particular, giving his own works such surrealistic names as PIeces in Pear Form and Dried Embryos, and annotating them with equally bizarre musical directions. |
