Vexations by Erik Satie at the number he required: 840 times.
So, in this year 2021, we came with this idea: 21 different
artists recording the piece 40 times = 840!
So from the 21st week of 2021 and for the next 21 weeks, one of the 21 volumes will be released.
Only one demand: each participant plays the piece 40 times on any instruments of their choice, tempo or arrangement they want. Enjoy!...more
