2016 Erik Satie Year!

Written by Pascal Rogé on 17 January 2016. Posted in Blog

Satie was born on May 17, 1866.  This year 2016 will be his 150th anniversary of his birth.  In celebration, we are giving several concerts with programs based around Satie and his friends, including Debussy, Ravel, and all the members of Les Six: Auric, Durey, Honegger, Milhaud, Poulenc, and Tailleferre.   (Please look at the concert calendar on the website).  There are programmes where Pascal will play solo recitals, and there will also be programmes with duo.  We are both looking very much forward to presenting all our favorite Satie pieces!!
