Composed by Erik Satie. Arranged by David Perkins. This edition: pdf. 19th Century, Classical, Contest, Festival, Holiday, Wedding. 21 pages. David Perkins #1069803. Published by David Perkins (A0.1493132).An arrangement of Erik Satie's Gnossienne No.1 for saxophone quartet. Slightly less well known than his earlier Gymnopedies, the Gnossiennes, dating from the 1890s, exhibit the same meditative, repetitive style but with influences from Javanese and exotic music. He wrote seven in total.
This arrangement takes the structure from the original piano piece, sharing the melodic themes around the quartet whilst taking us on a journey through a sequence of related minor keys.
NOTE: If anyone wants to send me a YouTube link to a recording of them performing this piece (audio or video), please send to [email protected] and I will publish it here for the whole world to see!
