Wave Notation 3: Erik Satie 1984

Erik Satie recitals by pianist Satsuki Shibano - originally the 3rd in Satoshi Ashikawa's foundational environmental music series, following his 'Still Way' and Hiroshi Yoshimura's 'Music for Nine Postcards' Freshly reissued for the first time as part of WRWTFWW Records' Japanese obsessions, 'Wave Notation 3: Erik Satie 1984' is an arch example of how Satie's furniture music was adored and influential in the Far East, holding particular appeal with their naturally elegant simplicity. In Satsuki Shibano's performance of some 26 vignettes and fuller bodied works it's not hard to hear a bridge between Western classical and the Japanese environmental ambient sound, breezily swept between multiple takes on Satie standards 'Gnossienne', Gymnopedie', and 'Vexation', to the airborne waltz of 'Danses de travers' and the wist of 'Nocturne'.
