The Ludions is a song cycle for voice and piano (or organ) by Erik Satie, composed in 1923 to five absurdist poems by Léon-Paul Fargue. It was the last of his vocal compositions, completed two years before his death. The songs are brief and a performance of the set usually lasts less than five minutes.
