Description

A musical composer who dabbled in the Dada movement, a Bohemian 'gymnopédiste' of fin-de-siècle Montmartre, and a legendary dresser known as 'The Velvet Gentleman' for his sartorial choices, Erik Satie was nearly unprecedented in technique, style and philosophy among European composers in the early twentieth century. Yet his legacy has largely languished in the shadows of Stravinsky, Debussy and Ravel. Mary E. Davis now brings Satie to life in this fascinating new biography that demonstrates that his musical innovations reached as far as his influence.
