Le fils des etoiles

Edited by Steffen Schleiermacher, this is the first Urtext edition which takes into account a previously neglected autograph on the Préludes. The three popular Préludes are presented in both versions. Considered one of Satie's most important compositions, it is of moderate difficulty, and this edition includes a detailed foreword, notes on interpretation, a critical commentary and a glossary.
