The lp issue of the 2 cd s of satie s slow music played by jeroen van veen. Erik satie s music remains as eccentric as it was when composed in the early 20th century.

Satie s music appeals to audiences well beyond the traditional classical boundaries and the issue on vinyl is an attractive bonus side a for any satie fan.
