Guillaume Coppola - Musiques Du Silence - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

We know Satie as a loner, but it is less well known that Satie had also been in love. He had a brief and stormy affair with the painter Suzanne Valadon. The portrait she made of him is on the cover of this album, as pianist Guillaume Coppola has conceived it as an intimate portrait of the composer, Inchone masked by a veil of modesty or provocation and which lies between antique and oriental inspiration, mystical phases, humour and cabaretInch. The miniature Bonjour Biqui and the motif of the Vexations possess rare allusions to Valadon and become commas between these chapters, as does Desespoir agreable, whose title alone seems to sum up Satie's life and work. This tribute is released to mark the centenary of Satie's death; whilst the famous Gymnopedies and Gnossiennes feature on the programme, the album also presents rare and infrequently recorded discoveries that testify to the richness of the works that the whimsical Satie had created.

We're the Staples Jr. Singers and we're a family band from the small town of Aberdeen, Mississippi. We wrote these stone-cold soul songs when we were just teenagers, and all of them were about what our family was going through at the time. Back then, we had one question on our minds, something we're sure a lot of you can relate to When Do We Get Paid?1 Get On Board2 I Know You're Going To Miss Me3 I'm Looking For A Man4 I'm Going To A City5 Somebody Save Me6 Trouble Of The World7 Waiting For The Trumpet To Sound8 I Feel Good9 When Do We Get Paid10 On My Journey Home11 Too Close12 Send It On Down
