L'ho ascoltata dal Maestro dal vivo. Non si può spiegare: cristallo! E acqua! Un "canto" che tintinnava nell'anima. Che incredibile fortuna aver potuto ascoltare quel concerto!
I studied piano with Aldo Ciccolini for many years here in Italy. I therefore say quite clearly that he was a great man, a passionate teacher and one of the greatest pianists of all time.
Che emozione indescrivibile sentire Satie e vedere suonare il Maestro al massimo della sua maturità...emoziona la musica...il suo volto...le sue mani ❤
The beauty of Satie. So open to interpretation. So little ink on the staves, it allows the performer to infuse their soul into the music. So little, yet so, so, so, SO much happening with every single note. Absolute beauty.
@John Leddy "The view from from the other side of the flowers" is the best comment I've ever ever ever seen. Thanks for that, I'll never forget it. Are you from Great Britain?
I interpret the piece as the flight of the soul. The bass is the earth, beckoning the soul to stay. The melody is the whimsy of the soul's departure, seeing the future, and making the transition to the "other side of the flowers".
Very interesting interpretation. It is almost lively when compared to some other versions. This is such a beautifully realized composition that it can support different tempos and still speak beautifully. I think that Sig. Ciccolini's version is probably what one would have heard in a salon in Paris at the end of the 19th century. Slower tempos strike me as being 20th century appropriate, more resigned and sad.
Brilliant...played deeply from the heart...Ciccolini brings this piece to life. Not many can manage that...many times, this piece sounds "canned" ... the piece has hardly been in better hands!
Have never heard so much individuality ,soulfulness and subtlety in this very famous piece.His voicing and 2nd beats and absolutely even chordal placement is a testament to his wizardry and control . Here his Chopin nocturnes that came out in the 1980's for imagination and color unlike anyother .Fabulous pianist !!!
@goodmanmusica La gente dice "joyeux anniversaire", che significa in francese "gioioso compleanno". Mi piaciono molto le interpretazione di Satie da Aldo Ciccolini. E un pianista meraviglioso. Grazie, signor Aldo.
Puro sonho, inefável...(esse tipo de obra consola-nos ante o mundo em que estamos vivendo,digo, mais do que consola,move-nos!) Esta música abre o peito , penetra no coração desavisado e envolve-nos numa aura de quietude criativa.Tornamo-nos reativos na experiência estética ,mas sem agir diretamente sobre o outro.Somos impelidos a refletir, criar,a olhar o mundo com outros olhos...
Satie's score says 'lent et douloureux', which translates to 'slow and painful'. Reinbert de Leeuw's 1977 performance of the piece comes closest to this. It is certainly unlike any other version you've probably heard. Though some may prefer his 1992 re-recording.
I first heard Ciccolini when I was a teenager centuries ago, where he played Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsody #11. Happy to see he's still at it. I don't think this is played too fast--although I wouldn't blame him if he was in a bit of a rush. Anthony Burgess called Satie's stuff 'furniture music', and I can understand what he means. Ciccolini probably finds it boring compared to the classical masters.
@burkea123 No offence, I just disagree. I think it's much more beautiful if it is slower than this. I think when the first right hand part comes in people tend to speed up the left hand so that they can keep that rhythm, but when it can be done slowly and that rhythm can be kept its wonderful. I admit, it is not easy to do (for me). Even when I play with a metronome that right hand part sounds funny sometimes.
+lisette wolters yes he starts waaay too fast and slows down as he goes here but there's a lovely recording by him that is much more consistent (also on youTube)
+lisette wolters We are here in Granada looking for a long long time for a good version of the G¡ymnopedie, thank you a lot! Finally we have found it :D
+docarii yes its beautiful isn't it? I saw Reinbert de Leeuw last month and he plays Satie so perfectly in sink with the person Satie was. An outsider, excentric and a avant garde person in his time. Ans he plays it so slow, you get drawn in. everybody in the audience is on a different planet!
This may just be me, but it sounds a bit too slow in my opinion, it lacks motion, I feel like there needs to be a bit more push and pull in the repeating melody of the song.
Indeed! The score is marked: Lent et DOULOUREUX!... And his tempo is no steady... A Gymnopédie is an ancien greek dance done by naked young men... It is a kind of ceremonial...
The first times hearing this music, you might think 'this needs to be played as slow as humanly possible'. And some (melodramatic) pianists play it like this. You can find plenty of slow version of this song on TH-cam. Later on I hope you come back to Aldo (especially his old renditions of this piece) and enjoy the pace. This strange, sad music, for slow, contemplative moods - played expertly at pace, like the world that doesn't stop turning.
I don't see the naked Greeks, I'm hearing a piece written by Parisian contemporary of Debussy. Context is everything. Exquisite mastery from Maestro Ciccolini. Such color and sensitivity. Breathtaking, unless you're a literal minded fool.

You are right
melancholy and happiness all at the same time. The view from the other side of the flowers. thanx volodya.

Un saggio che racconta la sua vita attraverso la musica e anche gli adulti diventano bambini nell’ascoltare..💪💪💪🎶🎶🎶
Andai a sentirlo ad uno dei suoi ultimi concerti, è stato un pianista meraviglioso!!! ❤
Specialmente col suo Debussy "lunare" e desolato
Aldo Ciccollini a été le plus grand spécialiste de "Satie". C'était un magnifique pianiste qui a joué jusqu'à la fin de ses jours.
Addio Maestro. Un signore del pianoforte, un grande interprete, naturalmente amatissimo in Francia, un onore per l'Italia.

La plus belle interprétation de cette pièce que j'aie jamais entendue.
Nein !
Sinceramente dopo aver ascoltato l'interpretazione del Maestro non riesco a farmi piacere altre versioni
Fantastico Ciccolini.
He reminds me of my dad, and makes me wonder how my dad would look today if he were alive, if only he would have learned how to play piano
What a sweet comment
Aldo Ciccolini speaks playing Satie. He means, feels the message of his music and displays it with natural. Both say the same things. Merci Maître.

I love the restraint and hesitancy he used in interpreting this piece.
Esecuzione da vero maestro...
Beautiful performance, God bless you. Thank you.
la sutileza del pianista al rozar sus manos en las teclas e interpretar la musica con su alma
Maravilloso pianista! Lamento profundamente su deceso.
Grandioso.. Fantastico!!!

well said, Ciccolini plays Satie like no one else. His is the best.
grande prestation d'un maitre du piano ,un répertoire magnifique!!!! et quelle leçon de piano
RIP
Ciccolini c'était Eric Satie réincarné...
das berührt mein Herz, diese Interpretation ist göttlich.
Sometimes I have to come back here to listen to this masterwork.
Fino ad oggi non ho sentito versione più toccante
A new interpretation of an underated composer, its refresing.

Is there a video with Ciccolini playing Gnossienne 3?
R.I.P Aldo!
My current favorite version on YT. By the way, just find out what Gymnopedie means….Anyone knows if Satie was gay? Not homofobia, just wanna know..

Bon voyage!

It’s a little to fast

It is supposed to be even slower! He palys it way too fast...
He plays it like an Italian: upbeat and impatient
too fast
