complete but lacking.......2005-06-14

While I am a fan of Thibaudet in general, he just seems lost here. Satie is deceptively difficult to judge as a performer, the music is at times mercurial or static, profound or frivolous, or all of the above. Yet one hardly needs to underline the oddness, it's perfectly revealed if you play it straight.
While some misread notes suggest he may not really know these pieces, Thibaudet manages to project something less than a competent sight reading. In such an endeavor he would certainly get the right feel occasionally by accident. Instead, he regularly puts the wrong foot forward, with odd accents and effects getting in the way, perhaps trying too hard to add spin to music whose mysteries refuse to unfold under such duress.
I would recommend collecting a number of different performers: Reinbert DeLeeuw, Pascal Roge, Anne Queffelec, JoAnna MacGregor and Michel Legrand have all made worthy contributions to the recent discography and their combined recordings would make a pretty-near complete survey.

good for completists, but..........2004-05-18

I jumped at the chance to buy this set; a new digital recording of Satie's complete solo piano music. I had admired Jean-Yves Thibaudet in the past and had seen him perform Messiaen's "Turangalila Symphony"; a great performance. However, after listening to this set for three straight months, I'm rather frustrated with it, mostly on aesthetic grounds, since I can't deny Thibaudet's talents; I just disagree with some of his interpretations.

To start, most of the shorter, "lite" pieces are performed very well on disc 4. Even the most popular, (Gymnopedies, Gnossiennes) are excellent. I am also thankful I now have performances of "Uspud" and many of Satie's conservatory assignments, played expertly and with good humor. For these, the set is worth having.

But now, the bad news. As I have complained about in the past with Thibaudet's Ravel discs, I'm frankly rather put-off by his inexplicable, pointless staccato in many of the pieces. "Petite Overture a la Danser" is one of my favorite Satie miniatures, and here Thibaudet botches it by playing it way too fast with no pedal. It sounds like a joke, and I think he totally misses the point of the piece. In the "Nazareen" preludes, he adds his own extreme dynamics which are not indicated in the original scores, and the effect seems like a cheap attempt to add "spice" to what are supposed to be meditative sound constructions, based on poetry forms rather than classical forms.

"Prelude to the Heroic Gate of Heaven" is taken far too slow, and Thibaudet completely cuts out the "Curtain" coda in the original Salabert edition for no apparent reason; he seems determined to give the piece a more "proper" ending, and for this listener, it's a terrible, narcissistic, and disrespectful miscalculation.

I will keep this set since it is a complete document, flawed though it may be. But I still must insist that the best living interpreter of Satie's piano music is the ever-underrated Reinbert DeLeeuw, who is completely in-tune with Satie's sly magic. His tempos may be slow, his dynamics few, but that's the whole point; this is highly personal music, and DeLeeuw has an aesthetic I can personally agree with. For an audible explanation of what I'm talking about, compare the performances of "Petite Overture a la Danser" by DeLeeuw and Thibaudet, and you'll see what I mean.

Yes, its worth five discs.......2003-12-17

Each disc averages about 75 minutes of music. Over six hours of Satie? Definitely yes. If you have an affinity for Satie's classic pieces you should not pass up this set. There are so many standout pieces in so many wonderful styles you can only leave this set with wonder. And Thibaudet seems made for this music. The best interpreter of Satie that I've heard. His technique is amazing with such a range of subtle fingering tempo and dynamics. Its as though I've heard some of these for the first time with new shocks of emotion I hadn't experienced before. Not to be missed.

Wonderful performance, great new music.......2002-08-01

Disclaimer...if you enjoy modern music, you'll really enjoy this recording. If you pull back at late Scriaben or Webern, don't even think about this recording.

Having said that, this is a spectacular disc of music that is well played and equally well recorded. While I listen to it on a boom box quality system at work, at home I've listened to this on some wonderful B&W speakers -- and the music just drifts in. This is not background music. It is introspective, mystical, dreamy -- challenging without being pretentious or annoying. I think part of what makes this music accessible are the lengths of the pieces. I found myself replaying several selections over and over -- enjoying them each time.

Very imaginative music and performances. For many folks, this disc will open doors to some great composers.

Customer Reviews:

documentary value.......2006-06-17

Book Two of "structures" is the reason to get this, Loriod and Pierre are remarkable together(They had toured with this repertoire for two pianos)and Loriod simply plays the hell out of this music, understands the young Pierre as no other and in some respects are good together although you can hear the date of the recording, the timbre is not as brilliant as if you had experienced this live. Book 2 is more a one-dimensional work,although loosely conceived compared to the deterministic strict serial Book One. Book Two has more texture to survey,not so concerned with how the pitches move and become transformed at every moment; lots of high filigree passages,continusouly running;i.e. thousand note cascades as the piano solo repertoire was to exploit as Finnissy, Sciarrino, Ferneyhoug, the complexity; the two pianos sound muffled, not too resonant. Book One was more straighforward, more transparent moments, more 12 tone faithful, Book 2 is overdetermined, lots of details in the scoring,to free up the interpretation with elliptical passages, indeterminate,something Boulez had learned from the Mallarme works and the Third Sonata. Pierre certainly had a deep affinity for the piano, anything he wrote was "touched" inspired with a resonant power combined simultaneously with a deep poetry,or suggestive of something else even the "surreal" crops up to the surface at times.Although it is difficult to argue along those lines in this highly abstract piece. But Book 2 has unrelenting moments,impenetrable really and you sense the post-electronic thinking of flipping a switch to turn on some autonomous dimension, there is hardly moments where for example the music "breathes" with slowing, diminutions of tempi, of durational lengths and you really cannot sort out the divisions where one pianist stops and the other continues. Loriod plays fairly impassioned, with a strong trumpet like tone,resonant whereas Boulez pulls back from the sound.

The other works, all of them simply have a documentary value. The:Polyphonic X: Boulez largely abandoned and recalled this work not satisfied with the results, and the instrumental writing is nowhere as interesting as the earlier "Livre for String Quartet" (later done for string orchestra)and the young Pierre simply did not have the same affinity or experience for writing for instruments as he later in life learned from conducting. A text tends to help his sensibility, his creativity to open the imagination; then things can happen as the Mallarme work and those settings after Rene Char. Boulez openly admits this in conversations which is why he succeeds much of the time, for he knows full well when he doesn't, something young and old composers can learn(or refuse to learn). As the "Poesie pour pouvoir" the electronics is largely uninteresting,it is mixed with the orchestra like a "milk-shake"; perhaps it was the cutting edge when prepared, but if you heard Stockhausen from the same period, or some years later it has far more sophistication,concept, depth and brilliance than this.The merger of both timbres(orchestra and electronics) simply doesn't work on a recording.But this is a genre Boulez certainly did not give up as his latter "repons" so powerfully does.
You need to experience this music, this CD live. The dedication to Furstenburg was I suspect commissioned, and again has documentary value with the Domaine Musicale the group that made history playing the entire repertoire of the Fifties avant-garde. The work has a nice transparent premise/ concept to it, all is clear

Not just a curiosity..........2000-09-13

The items on this disc are all recorded from their world premieres during the 50s and early 60s. Most have only rarely been heard since. "Polyphonie X" and "Poésie pour pouvoir," in fact, were quickly withdrawn from Boulez' catalog. As such, this disc should be of immediate import to die-hard Boulez fans simply for its historical value.

But there is more to this recording than just that. There is, after all, music to be heard (lest we forget). "Polyphonie X" (1950-51) is the earliest of the works presented here. It represents Boulez' so-called "total serialism" at its most extreme, yet, in its quieter moments--if only there were more--it presages the lucidity of his subsequent music. The performance is clearly inadequate, and the recorded sound boxed-in, but what virtues the piece does have are able--if only just barely--to shine through. An important note: col legno has segmented "Polyphonie X" into three separate tracks, and the editors have unfortunately cut from the original tape--highly inappropriate for a live performance--to do so.

"Poésie pour pouvoir" (1958) was Boulez' earliest foray into working electronics into a concert setting. The tape part is interwoven with the orchestra. At first, they alternate; later on, they overlap (or, at least, try to). Despite the vintage 50s material on the tape, it comes off as more reserved in its resrvoir of sound than similar works by some of Boulez' contemporaries. What really impresses me, however, is the utterly *gorgeous* orchestral writing, akin to that in "Pli selon pli" but livelier and freer in form. If only the recorded sound weren't so limited in its ability to pick up on the detail. A revision for Ircam technology would be very much appreciated; this music simply cannot afford to waste away in this (so far) one and only performance.

"Tombeau" (1959) should already be familiar to Boulez fans. To them I point out that this is the original version, which consists roughly of the first four minutes and last three minutes of the version in "Pli selon pli." To the newbie--who, nevertheless, probably shouldn't be starting out with this recording--I point out that "Tombeau" is a slowly-building crescendo, one of the most beautiful works (IMO) in the entire orchestral repertory (which I hope it will soon join). The performance and recorded sound are much better than those for the prior works.

"Structures II" (1956-61) is perhaps the most-often heard of the works on this disc. The pianists--here Yvonne Loriod and Boulez himself--provide a vituosic display of impressionistic colors running up and down the two keyboards. In a unique twist, the aleatoric second chapter is presented in two alternate treatments.
