Description
As an hommage to the French composer Erik Satie (1866-1925), almost all expression and tempo marks in this piano suite have been borrowed from his works. The opening movement can be seen as a sporty challenge: all the 88 keys of the piano have to be played as fast as possible. The title ’Ouvrez la Tête’ can be translated as ’Open (your) Head’.
