"Gymnopedi" is one of the annual events of ancient Sparta, a dance festival in memory of the soldiers who died in the Battle of Troy. The word gymnopedi was used by Sati as a quotation from "Gymnopaedia", the word for a festival mentioned above. It was composed in 1888, at the age of 22 by Erik Satie (1866-1925/ France), a heretical composer in the 20th century music world. He originally composed three gymnopedies, of which I arranged the second one for String Quartet. The song is stated to be "slow and sad". Overall, it represents a bizarre and melancholic atmosphere. In , a pure and honest piece of music with a simple composition and melody, you can feel Sati's lonely life.
