Help[Facts] Re: Satie the anagrammatist of Musicians
in reply to a message by PriaposLovs
Fascinating and cool bit of info, Priapos and Selwyn. Although we have a CD boxed set of Satie's music in our collection (including his Gymnopedies) I don't believe we have his Vexations. Must find it now! :)
John tells me to recommend Mozart to Priapos as another "anagrammist of musicians" -- specifically Mozart's diabolical piece titled "A Musical Dice Game". :)

Ultracool piece! And you can even replicate Mozart's experiment at home thanks to http://sunsite.univie.ac.at/Mozart/dice/ :)

Hey PriaposLov and Nanaea
Have either of you heard any Sergei Prokofiev or Edvard Grieg? Prokofiev's most famous piece is Peter and the Wolf (I think), but I've tried his Sonata for Two Violins, Opus 56. Grieg composed three sonatas for violin and piano, but I can't quite recall the titles. You might be able to find some old recordings of them somewhere. If you do listen to them, could you give me your opinions of them?
