About

Every once in a while Paolo Pandolfo likes to slip away from the world of Baroque-era manuscripts for virtuoso compositions on the viola da gamba in order to create a free-form improvisatory programme surrounded by like-minded musical spirits: and so, away from stylistic rules and regulations, 'Kind of Satie' has come into being for Glossa. Subtitled 'new music around Erik Satie', Pandolfo embarks on a journey around the eccentricity-laden life of that 'transcendent idealist', in the company of his brother Andrea, and with Michelangelo Rinaldi.

Andrea Pandolfo, who worked with Paolo on the 'Travel notes' programme, is a trumpet and flugelhorn player as well as a composer (in world music, contemporary, folk, jazz and early music), whilst the multi-instrumentalist Rinaldi acquits himself admirably on this new recording in playing piano, accordion and toy piano. Paolo Pandolfo is to be heard on both his usual and on an electro-acoustic viola da gamba.

Satie’s musical scores frequently bore markings designed solely for performers, but in some of the pieces included in 'Kind of Satie' these are openly presented for listeners by the Pandolfo brothers.

The music for the Trois Sonneries de la Rose+Croix and Sports et Divertissements provide the trio with starting points for their own modern-day musical compositions, as does Baroque music (pace Marin Marais). The draughtswoman Tinka Volaric provides a series of illustrations created specifically in the context of this innovative project.
