A charming and quirky suite of three movements from the original seven, for solo concert harp with string orchestra. Debussy criticised Satie's music for lack of form--there is a story that Satie showed these pieces to Debussy who asked, Why such a title? He replied "Because you cannot criticize my Three Pieces in the shape of a Pear. If they are in the form of a pear they cannot be shapeless." Poire had the slang meanings of fool and spinning top--Satie is famous for playing the fool --he said "Take my ... Morceaux en Forme dune Poire... it is evident that musical ideas played no part whatsoever in their composition." First performed by Anita Aslin with Hessle Sinfonia, Alan Edgar conducting.
