I made this documentary with Professor Tudor Parfitt... It's about a group of Africans called the Lemba who believe they are Jews. We followed an investigative trail from S Africa, through Zimbabwe and Mozambique to a denouement in the Hadramut in the Yemen.

Erik Satie: Things Seen to the Right and the Left
มุมมอง 97K9 ปีที่แล้ว
Music documentary made for the BBC and Arte. Satie's life is told through the eyes of admirers and those who knew him in the 1920s. Made for Dennis Marks with Karl Sabbagh/Skyscraper Productions.
If only one could bring Satie and Marina Abramovic together!
Scott Carpenter is my favourite astronaut 🙂
Before columbia i guess
Takes 3 months to learn a piece… may i ask what piece is it…?
10:54
A lot of pompous twats telling little about Satie.
anyone knows the name of the piece at 23:29?
42:04
no sound
You mean ambient music?
Oh
2:31 video starts
34:15
Hearing socrates sung by a female sounds so wrong
Excellent documentary!
I might be wrong. I probably am wrong. But wasn't it Satie who invented the 'avant garde'? Conceptualism, minimalism, pop art etc etc etc. I mean, didn't his ideas pre-date Cubism, Found Art, etc etc by 30 years or so?
Bro, I've been saying this for a while satie is the father of modern music and his furniture music is pretty much video game music.
Ah France . ! Still , despite so many changes , the true Centre of Culture in Europe . ( et je ne suis pas Francais !! )
what's the piece that plays in the start of the doc? Please let me know
Purple Haze, I believe.
Chris, who is the elderly lady who knew Satie?
Started learning piano at the start of the COVID 19 lockdown (March 2020 in Wales) and of course Gymnopedie no.1 was one of the first songs I started to learn. I didn't realise how fascinated I would be with Satie himself. Really enjoyed this documentary!
I find much of Satie and Warhol's personalities seem to overlap in viewpoints and philosophy and creativity.

I believe that E.S. intuited a way to transcend time, a way to rise above the planes of time and just be. It can be extremely energizing/healing. Music without a beginning, without an end, without bar lines open doors within the mind to new worlds-of-possibilities. Glass discovered this and so did Cage... and a number of others as well. A mystical way to enter "the timeless dimensions" some have called it. It is an ancient skill known by the Theraputi of Greece and Egypt in ages past.
Beautifully done, although I wound have liked for you to have brought up some things about his Rosicrucian period and then his personal religion. Debussy as well as a number of other artists became Rosicrucians. This fraternal organization predates them all. Thanks.
What's the name of the piece at 34:14?
At last I’ve found an artist who understands me. Kudos on a loving homage.
Things seen to the right and the left, but only heard from the right. Great documentary though
Haha. yes bit of a bummer to only have mono
Satie to chyba mój ulubiony artysta.
Makes me like Satie even more, good old avant-garde. For the record: (BBC 1992)
We went to his house in Honfluer, now a museum dedicated to his life & filled with his music. Definitely a strange fellow, but a genius living his own way and composing wonderful timeless music that we will love forever.
Satie was and still is the best, no one can never come close to his genius nor music.
Yeah he is definitely up there
He is cool. Not much else. But I love his coolness.
Thank you
42.40 the man talking sounds like the one in THE CHILL OF DEATH by Charles Mingus.. wow
Thank you for this performance of: Erik Satie: Things Heard From the Right.
You said it for me.
Everyone needs to look up the documentary about Henry Darger.
Love Darger! Check out Austin Osman Spare while you're at it.

What's the name of the piece at 34:14?
It must not be forgotten that there are two other gymnopédies (that I also play).
Came across this documentary about Erik Satie which is excellent if one likes Satie as I do.
Well in that case and just in case you haven't seen it already, here's another classy art film (by René Clair) that you might enjoy th-cam.com/video/Gu8E_s3km8A/w-d-xo.html featuring Saint Satie himself being canonized in slow motion, a camel-drawn hearse and Karl Marx dancing in a tutu (cool beans!) Watch it if you DARE!
I find it intolerably obnoxious that Boulez and Messiaen dismiss this composer, one of the most independent, authentic and original of composers. How does it make the World a better place, or even enhance their own positions to be so vicious and vindictive ? What threat does he pose to them ? To speak so disparagingly of a colleague is as widespread today as it has ever been, and it is just as foul. Talent, good manners and friendliness, apparently, often don’t seem to mix ...
Too true and very well put. To be Cesar Franck about it, Boulez was a suspiciously well-connected, thoroughly artificially facilitated and quite possibly overrated composer (and politician of "the arts") whose minimal popularity has only decreased over time, while Satie's well founded popularity does nothing but increase. Thus does the unpleasantness of politics within "the arts" often reflect the unpleasantness of politics in general. That stated, at least Messiaen had some actual game. Still, there are no valid excuses for being so boldly mean and inaccurate. Vive Satie! "The artists of our day are becoming businessmen and think like attorneys." - Erik Satie
Boulez was always opinionated, to put it mildly. As for Messiaen, I'm not sure what he actually said of Satie. But musicians are entitled to their opinions.
I think Satie is a better composer than Boulez or Messiaen.
It's very French. And of course composers - Satie included - view others through a prism of their value to their own work. Chill.
@@davidw.montague5376 Boulez => t.Edison, Satie => Tesla ?
So soothing, it's like when you listen to it you feel like all stress is locked outside.
Too true. Usually Satie's works have that pleasantly gentle effect - that is unless the piece requires some lighthearted and hilariously shockingly LOUD POUNDING, as is sometimes the case. But the occasional sardonic pounding just adds to the overall entertaining contrast. Vive Satie!
Thanks for uploading this! Awfull audio though
I could listen to Philip Glass talk about Erik Satie all day
Not on mono. It's only coming through one earpiece ffs
That would be preferable to listening to his music. (Glass' , not Satie)
If only my left ear could listen to this... it'd be very pleased!
Interestingly or not (most likely...not), many violinists and violists suffer from a curiously lopsided form of self-inflicted left-ear-deafness simply as a result of playing their instruments in the Mc-modern, post-viol style. Seriously: th-cam.com/video/9d-JIj2NOvI/w-d-xo.html (The information section of the video may explain much.) Luckily for me, my hearing is A(440)-okay in both ears...because I was lucky enough to be inspired by Satie. "Experience is a form of paralysis (or, in some cases, nerve damage.)" - Erik Satie
@@davidw.montague5376 i am super intrigued to learn more about your thoughts on the ergonomics of violin playing but the link is no longer active :<
@@lkym2481 I had forgotten about deleting that video. Thank you for reminding me. The ergonomics of violin playing may be an interesting albeit arcane subject. If you'd like to learn about an exceptionally healthy way to play the violin (for all ears), here's a functional link featuring a detailed explanation. th-cam.com/video/zTui2HRi0ps/w-d-xo.html The information section may seem a little confusing (strictly intentional), but it's fairly sensible. Plus if anyone is bored enough to read all the way to the bottom I included an additional link to another video that visually demonstrates my healthy violin technique. Bottom line: Play the violin any way you want. Just grab a violin and get to know it. I like to play many styles, but I've been inspired to play lots of works by Satie. So if you look through my uploads you'll find all of Satie's Gnossienne, Gymnopedies and also a work entitled Pièces froides, Airs à faire fuir. Stay healthy and happy New Year.
@@davidw.montague5376 i googled procession point and found a post you put on a fiddler's forum linking to a previous version of the same video: th-cam.com/video/5GuluDIBJzI/w-d-xo.html i certainly agree that health and ergonomics take precedence over tradition! you ever see a transverse flute player? of course that's an awkward position. i really wish they made them easily playable. i've looked up different attachments to make them functional while held similar to a clarinet, but the attachment is ~2000$.. yikes!
@@lkym2481 That was admirably diligent of you. You managed (via a very old 'fiddlers' post) to look up my long-dead TH-cam channel that Google-tube wrongfully and illegally locked me out of (seriously, locked me out of) simply because I wouldn't give the dishonest creeps my phone number. Creepy dishonest Google. Oh well. Anyway, too true about both violins and transverse flutes. That's why I prefer to play recorders. Plus I think recorders have a pleasantly interesting sound: th-cam.com/video/NxJMa3PZOiE/w-d-xo.html (From my current, large Gooftube channel-portfolio.) Yes, good idea - think with originality in the name of ergonomic comfort and authentic health. Satie would appreciate that. Have a Satie-empowered day. th-cam.com/video/cOqiSlGJmsI/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!
Did Satie even get out of his chair when nature called (for comfort breaks) or to eat or wash? A personal question, but was he in a state of depression that prevented him from moving?
In the arts, it may be best not to be too literal. Besides, most fine artists experience bouts of colorful gloominess. For instance, Satie's friend Debussy... “The color of my soul is iron-grey and sad bats wheel about the steeple of my dreams.” - Claude Debussy
What is the piece around 34.15?
17.30 "On my scales, a common F# registered 93 kilos. It came out of a fat tenor i also weighed" Priceless! What a unique mind.
