Summary Exploring the many aspects of Erik Satie's creativity, Caroline Potter examines his philosophy and psychology, revealed through his music; Satie's interest and participation in visual and literary artistic media; and his collaborations with other artists. His artistic activity, during a tumultuous time in the Parisian art world, situates him in an especially exciting period, and his friendships with Debussy, Stravinsky and others place Satie at the centre of French musical life. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in the French musical and cultural scene of the late nineteenth.
