Gymnopaedia No.1 (Dreamstate) is an original playalong for Bb and Eb wind instruments, composed & produced by James McFadyen. The concept for this track is borne through the idea of 'life after Erik Satie', by creating three brand new gymnopedie's, inspired by the original and popular Erik Satie offerings.
The composer has chosen the traditional name of Gymnopaedia, and comprises of the following three pieces:
Gymnopaedia No.1 (Dreamstate)
Gymnopaedia No.2 (Lux)
Gymnopaedia No.3 (Winter)
Each piece offers something new, whilst remaining satisfyingly identifiable. The pieces are also available in full sheet music form for Bb/Eb Trumpet and Piano, simply entitled Gymnopaedia.
