Product Description

Erik Satie's Gymnopedies are unique studies in how music can be beautiful, yet uncomplicated. They were originally for piano, however Satie's friend, Claude Debussy set two of them for orchestra. Debussy added just a very little while arranging, but what he did add makes a big difference in how well these two pieces work for a woodwind quartet. The 3,1 in the title refer to Debussy's reversing the order deliberately to make the music flow better when using only two of the pieces. John Gibson used this setting for his flute quartet that includes flute 1-3, and alto flute with an alternate 4th flute if there is no alto available.
