    Les Disques du Crepuscule reissue Erik Satie's landmark, avant-garde composition 'Vexations', originally composed in 1893. This extraordinary score for 'Vexations' is just three lines long, yet a complete performance (840 repetitions) may last for anything between 14 and 28 hours. First performed under the supervision of John Cage in 1963, this radical, enigmatic, proto-surrealist work is now recognised as a significant milestone in the avant-garde canon.
