Erik Satie, Branka Parlić - Initiés is a renowned analog recording featuring Serbian pianist Branka Parlić's interpretations of works by French avant-garde composer Erik Satie, known for his minimalist, atmospheric piano pieces like Gymnopédies and Gnossiennes. Initiés is a seminal collection of solo piano works by French composer Erik Satie, performed by Serbian pianist Branka Parlić. Exceptional Aanalogue Sound!

It is highly regarded for its minimalist precision and was a pioneering release in the Balkans. This version won a Silver Medal at the Global Music Awards and is noted for its strictly analog production process.

"This Satie's recordings are marvelous, indeed... musicianship is of the highest level, but it sound wise these discs are of stellar, seldom appreciated quality: the piano left-hand notes aren't commonly heard in commercial, multi-miked productions..." - You’ll enjoy this AAA tape recording for years to come.

A couple of years ago Jürg Schopper received from a close friend from Serbia Branka Parlic's recording of Eric Satie on an Ex-Jugoslavian label.

Jürg Schopper where was deeply touched by the performance, but not by the sound quality. So Jürg got in contact with Branka and invited her to come to Winterthur to do another recording of the same program.

AAA 100% Analogue. The entire tape mastering analog domain chain was kept analog from start to finish. You’ll enjoy this AAA analogue tape recording for years to come!
