"Gymnopédies" refers to a set of three piano compositions by French composer Erik Satie, composed in the late 19th century. The term itself is derived from an ancient Greek festival that included athletic competitions and musical performances. The pieces are notable for their simple, yet haunting melodies and unique rhythmic structures, often evoking a sense of tranquility and introspection. Satie's "Gymnopédies" have become emblematic of early modernist music and are widely recognized in popular culture.
