What is this collage of almost recognizable snippets and objets trouvés -- like some Marcel Duchamp of the piano?
It is Satie, of course, in this case poking fun at Chopin and Debussy. If we're looking for a musical expression that came close to Dada, Satie is the most prominent name that comes to mind -- although this piece actually predates Dada by a few years. But the spirit is unmistakable.
