Avant-dernières pensées

Composed 1915

Published 1915

Works 3

Three 'Penultimate Thoughts' from 1915, each dedicated to a fellow composer: Debussy, Paul Dukas, and Albert Roussel. The most affectionate of Satie's ironic collections, with a tenderness that makes the absurdist titles feel genuinely poignant.
