Cinq grimaces pour Le songe d'une nuit d'été

The Cinq grimaces pour Le songe d'une nuit d'été (Five Grimaces for A Midsummer Night's Dream) is a set of incidental music pieces for orchestra by Erik Satie. Composed in 1915 for a planned circus-style staging of Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream, it marked the composer's first collaboration with author Jean Cocteau. The production failed to materialize and Satie's music went unperformed in his lifetime. His score was published posthumously in 1929.
