Gymnopédies

For the Ancient Greek festival and dance, see Gymnopaedia.

The Gymnopédies (French pronunciation: [ʒim.nɔ.pe.di]), or Trois Gymnopédies ('Three Nude Dances"), are three piano compositions written by French composer and pianist Erik Satie. He completed the whole set by 2 April 1888, but they were at first published individually: the first and the third compositions were published in 1888, while the second would not be published until 1895.
