Best wishes,

This untitled piece was found by Robert Caby in Satie's notebooks, and was named "Caresse" (caress) by French composer Robert Caby (1905-1992).

Satie's ”Caresse", a lesser known piano piece he composed in 1897.

From what I've been told, Caresse is part of the "Carnet de croquis et d'esquisses" collection, which is a small mess of found sketches.

Anyway, I think there are amazing sound colors, and it sounds modern.
A timeless beauty.

All the best, everyone
