- Title
Eric Satie's Musical Score for the Film "Entr'acte" Directed by René Clair as a Precursor of Modern Minimalist Soundtracks.

- Abstract
The paper is devoted to the analysis of Erik Satie's music for René Clare's film Entr'acte, in which he had anticipated the repetitive methods of composition that were formed in the 1960s in the works of American minimalist composers (Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Philip Glass) and firmly entered the language of modern film music in the 1990s. The special role of rhythm, melodic simplicity of the material, the principle of ostinato and building a whole on the basis of sound groups of a given length are now embodied in the soundtracks of film composers in the USA (David Lang), Great Britain (Michael Nyman), Germany (Hans Zimmer), Russia (Alexey Aigui), and France (Philippe Rombi, Armand Amar, Jérôme Lemonnier, etc.).
