A sweetly melodic & gentle piano piece.
A piano solo that starts peacefully and delicately before rising to an emotional crescendo, then dropping back to a serene finish. An atmospheric piece that showcases Chopin's mastery of the piano.
Slow, ('Lent' in French), and free-flowing, this track evokes an almost daydream like state. This is the first of three works to be given the name Gnossienne name by Erik Satie to reflect this new style of composition.
One of the most famous pieces of music for solo piano. Despite having the instruction, 'Lent et douloureux', (slow and painfully), this track is referred to for calm, relaxing and meditative purposes. Atmospheric and ambient.
Slow and grave, ('Lent et grave'), the third Gymnopedie is perhaps the most heartbreaking. The whole ambience is punctuated by mournful melodies that have become so popular in modern productions.
The third in a series of highly expressive and free-flowing compositions by Satie is again at a slow pace like the first one. This gives the track a sombre and hypnotic quality. Creates an almost haunting atmosphere.
Graceful, Lilting, Heartbroken
Western / Mexican style ballad. Shoot out at the OK Corrall! Twangy electric, Spanish guitars, church bell. Builds in stages over 3 choruses.
Mid-tempo country ballad with Dobro and a pedal steel top line. Classic country style, swaying and swinging.
Mid-tempo swinging country blues, with plenty of twangy guitars and Telecaster picking. Electric slide guitars over bass and drums -- classic country stuff.
Mid-tempo country ballad with Dobro and a pedal steel top line. Classic country style, swaying and swinging.
Doomful, atmospheric, western solo slide guitar.
Light Country, Mellow, Relaxed, Easy
The second Gnossienne has the instruction, 'avec ?tonnement', (with astonishment), to instruct the player to play slightly faster than the other two pieces. Still has lots of space and freedom of expression.
