Je te veux ("I want you")
Recital in the form of ... vexations
Erik Satie composed Vexations in 1893 following his breakup with the painter Suzanne Valadon, their relationship of a few months having ended with a bang.
NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: "To play this motif 840 times in a row, it will be good to prepare oneself beforehand, and in the greatest silence, by serious immobilities": a deliberately provocative program, perhaps in the image of the sadness and bitterness of the musician...
A notorious anti-conformist, Satie mocked a certain musical academism even in the titles of his pieces, such as his Trois morceaux en forme de poire... So why not be iconoclastic in our turn? By not repeating this motif of Vexations eight hundred and forty times, we will instead give it a role of sound punctuation, of interlude creating a link between pieces chosen precisely for their diversity, their contrasts. Oscillating between meditative music (Gnossiennes, Gymnopédies), mystical states (Prélude de la porte héroïque du ciel), humor or parody (Embryons desséchés, Sonatine bureaucratique) and music-hall (Je te veux, Jack in the box), this recital confirms that the production of this original remains unclassifiable!
An entire recital without form? or rather in the form of... Vexations.
