Welcome to Day Three of Erik Satie Week on IPR's Kids Commute!
This week, we're listening to music written by the delightful oddball French composer, Erik Satie.
Today, music from a ballet that wound up getting Satie sent to jail! Keep your ears open for the weird instruments that director Jean Cocteau requested for the score (Pistols! Typewriters!).
