Great to find Liona Boyd finally. I first purchased a vinyl album of her playing this piece by Satie in 1981. Classical guitar music wasn't a big seller back then so finding it at 33 1/3 rpm was a score.

Great to find Liona Boyd finally. I first purchased a vinyl album of her playing this piece by Satie in 1981. Classical guitar music wasn't a big seller at Tower Records (look it up) back then so finding it at 33 1/3 rpm was a score. Now I can mark this one off the "Bucket List". Life back in balance.

He signed his name as a compose with a "K", but his name originally was with a "C". Again, those French, and he was a colorful one at that.

This is probable the best guitar rendition I have heard of this Satie masterpiece. I regret you have disable the "thumb up" & comments?

Beautifully filmed and exquisitely played. The best string version on You Tube. Thanks.

Stanster, That is incredible the recording was made from a mono VHS machine. Do you mean just like a Video recorder and you plug into the input on the sound channel? They would have needed a pre amp for the Mic. I wonder what they used as a pre amp?

Rick Washbrook

Dear Stanster, In respect to your comment what did you not like about the audio, you refered to it as bad? I found the audio on my computer speakers was amazing. You know what I am thinking? I was listening to the sound of the guitar and I have never heard a guitar sound so even and almost sounded like a piano to me. Every note was so even and I do know about compression , but I feel it was Liona's right hand technique that was so even and relaxed. You know mono may be the answer.

Rick Washbrook

Beautiful performance. The tone is so pretty and smooth. I like the tempo to it is awesome. The guitar sounds like a piano. Is there a transcription of Liona Boyds arrangement out there Gymnopédie #1 (Eric Satie) .

classclef . com has this song as well as Erik Satie's other musical pieces he composed. Classclef is by far my favorite place to find music-especially romantic/baroque/classical and flamenco music, that I want to learn. Very few pieces that I looked up were unavailable, and I've looked for many! It's free btw.

His given name was Éric Alfred Leslie Satie. He later signed it as Erik Satie. You're both right.:)

stanster69

Yes, I suppose I should change that one of these days. :-)

absolutely beautiful however I believe his name is spelled Erik with a K and not a C (those french spellings...). :)
