This is the title of a series of pieces conceived by French composer Erik Satie in the 1920s. It is not intended to be listened to carefully like ordinary musical works, but rather to blend with the everyday sounds of the surroundings and contribute to creating the sound environment of the place. Like furniture, it adds a kind of color to life, but the music itself should be lost in the everyday, hence the name. It is made up of an infinite repetition of short phrases, and is music that draws as little attention as possible. It is noted as a precursor to the American experimental composer John Cage and environmental music.

フランスの作曲家エリック・サティが,1920年代に構想した音楽の題名で,数曲から成る。一般の音楽作品のように注意して聴かれることを目的とせず,日常的な周囲の音と混じり合って,その場の音の環境づくりに貢献するだけの音楽である。家具のように,生活に一種の彩りを与えるが,それ自身は日常性に埋没すべき存在であることから,こう名付けられた。短い楽句の無限の繰り返しからできており,できるだけ注意を引かないような音楽になっている。アメリカの実験作曲家ジョン・ケージや,環境音楽への先駆として注目される。
