V/A - A Young Person's Guide To The Avant Garde

Excellent LTM double CD compilation of music from Satie's 1893 "Vexations" to the 1960s. I've only been listening to disc one this week, which is excellent. Apart from Kurt Schwitters proving that some avant garde recordings are really really irritating.


Picked up a best of Satie type cd recently on the back of really loving the gymnopedies songs. Gnossiennes are also great. It didn't have vexations on so will have to investigate further. Is there some link with Satie and Debussy? I think Debussy did versions of Gymnopedies too?
