In 1903, Satie composed his famous cycle for piano duet with the provocative and ambiguous title ?3 Morceaux en forme de Poire?. (In French, ?poire? means ?pear? but also ?dimwit?). It is a detached and ironic commentary on the constraints of musical form. Now this cycle is being published in a scholarly-critical Urtext edition for the first time. Convenientpage turns, a score format, translations of the French expression and t empo markings, Satie?s enigmatic introduction, performance suggestions by the Satie specialist Steffen Schleiermacher and a detailed foreword bythe renowned musicologist Jens Rosteck make the study and performance o f these pieces a true pleasure.
