Some stories take years to find their voice.
“Gnossiennes – For Me, For Satie” is one of them.
For many years, Carlo Corazza kept his love for Satie’s music hidden. As a young pianist, he was told that these pieces were not “real” music. And like many students shaped by their teachers, he listened. He stopped playing Satie in public. But not at home. There, in private moments, the music never left.
Now, at 47, Carlo releases this quiet, long-held affection into the world. Each of the six Gnossiennes is played on an acoustic felted piano, with softness and sincerity. These are not grand performances, they are intimate, honest reflections. Each note is a gesture of freedom. Each pause, a space to breathe.
This album is not just about music. It is about reclaiming a part of oneself that was once silenced. It is about the way certain melodies stay with us, even when we try to set them aside. It is about art healing what fear once muted.
Even the cover tells a story. Drawn by Carlo decades ago, the portrait of Satie was never finished, until now. The music gave him permission to complete what he once abandoned.
The music has liberated the man
