Erik Satie

Erik Satie

Muriel Cooper, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1969

Description

In this intimate, farsighted biography by Templier, based largely on original sources and published in France in 1932, Satie emerges as a rare and gifted musician, misunderstood and underestimated because of a complex personality. Templier’s discerning study of this sensitive and perceptive musician was long out of print and until this translation was practically unattainable.
