Question
Hello, thank you for your help. I'm trying to identify the music playing on this website: http://www.raycaesar.com/gallery/2011temp136

There is more than one song, but I'm most interested in the one that plays first. Thanks again!

Answer
Hi Emm. The first piece is "Gnossienne No.2" by the French composer Satie. The first 10 minutes is all Satie's music (I stopped listening after that time), so I assume it's all going to be Satie.

Satie is most famous for his "Gymnopedie No.1", which I'm sure you've heard before.
