About This Song
About "Satie: 3 Mélodies de 1916: No. 3, Le chapelier" by Aldo Ciccolini
Satie's 'Le chapelier' is a surreal hatmaker's song, Ciccolini's piano a dry, ticking clock beneath Mesplé's voice. The music tips its hat to nonsense, yet a thread of sadness weaves through the whimsy. It's a miniature theater of the absurd, charming and quietly disquieting.
