The atmospheric cycle "Avant-dernieres Pensees" (Next-to-last Thoughts) of 1915, with its underlaid words, likewise belongs to Satie's 'story pieces'.
The curious performance instructions in these three miniatures, all based on ostinato figures, amusingly lampoon the ideal of Romantic expressiveness.
