The guitar adds a different tone to the whole piece. It doesn't have that haunting presence that the piano leaves you with. Not that that's a bad thing, just different. I like it.

Psychospic true that, it doesn't have the haunting feel that the piano gives. I'm guessing it's because of the lack of sustained dissonant notes, that is impossible to achieve, to certain degree, on the guitar.

I'm a guitarist and i loved this piece since I first heard it. Played on piano of course. The nonsensical thing is, i have NO idea where i first heard it, but it has haunted me for ages and i had nowhere to start in searching for its name. Lately it has popped up in KZitem shorts as background music a couple of times, driving me crazy all over again. And over the last few months ive asked in the comments several times for a name of either the piece, the composer or a movie i might have heard it in. ANY clue as to where i picked up this damn earworm! Last night I finally got the name Erik Satie! This is my next project to learn on guitar. Such a deeply haunting piece of music to me. But I'm over the moon to have my answer, and many thanks to that guy who actually bothered to put me out of my misery!

The first time I heard this played on piano it stuck in my head for weeks. I'd never heard anything quite like it before and those dissonances were a bit like a pain in the tooth that you can't keep your tongue from retuning to poke it just so you can feel the hurt it brings. Your guitar version is remarkably good in the sense that it captures that melancholic pain extremely well. There's great beauty in your interpretation of this piece and I thank you wholeheartedly for posting it. I will probably learn it one day for there's nothing like it as far as I know in the guitar repertoire .. well done sir.

C'est la 2e version à la guitare que j'écoute, elle est très différente de celle-ci : kzitem.info/news/bejne/lo-hxY6EoWV3noY Je la préfère à cause de la qualité du son, et aussi parce que la version d'Otto Tolonen me paraît trop lente, sans relief et lointaine. Et aussi, arriver sur scène sans avoir accordé sa guitare au préalable, je trouve que c'est un manque de respect au public.

A very spatial composition and interpreted beautifully by Otto Tolonen. I have a recording of this on Piano and the guitar is just that little bit more expressive. The Gnossiennes are like abstract paintings comparing with the whimsical gymnopedies which have a more conventional feel to them. These pieces make me think of the long walks that Satie took around Paris and it's suburbs. I am sure that many of his compositions arose during these walks. The rhythm of walking and the mind under it's influence would have brought forth just such musical mysteries.
