Review:"entertaining and attractive anthology gets better and better as it proceeds. John McCabe has the full measure of Satie"s understated melancholy and cool, lyrical nostalgia. ...response of the pianism places this amongst the finest of Satie collections" (Penguin Guide 3 stars) "McCabe is an intelligent & sympathetic exponent... catching its gently disconsolate atmosphere... helped by intimate recording... Sonatine played affectionately....in the quirky Sports, atmosphere takes precedence..."(Penguin Guide 3 stars) (reviews refer to both original sources)Track Listing:1 Gymnopédie No.12 Gymnopédie No.23 Gymnopédie No.34 Ragtime Parade (piano arr.
