A confident, even aggressive performance of an aggressive piece Scriabin has been a deep love of mine for some years now, and I can't quite understand why. The nervous energy sitting just underneath the beauty of his work--a frenetic, almost frightened energy. For me, Scriabin's work sits juuuuust barely shy of unpleasant, in that zone that keeps my finger constantly pushing "rewind", to hear again and again how he colors a mood, or his phrasing. He is my addiction!!

Lynne Perkins there is nothing aggressive, nervous, or unpleasant about this piece. I'm afraid you've misunderstood it. scriabin writes affabile as an indication of expression in measure one. this means that the piece is to be played in a pleasant manner. in the tempo marking, agevole suggests a certain ease or smoothness, no rough edges here. The grandiose gestures towards the end of the piece and the ornamented variations of the main melody are scriabin's poetic farewell to the romantic era. this piece overflows with romanticism and nostalgia, it's like a memory.

@@tigrrrsox Listen to 3:20 and read what Lynne wrote again. Also listen to Sofronitsky's interpretation of this piece. I don't think Lynne "misunderstood", but perhaps intuited something a bit deeper. Going by his biography, Scriabin sounded like a pretty troubled guy for most of his life. I'd be surprised if that doesn't creep, subconsciously, into even music that he writes as "pleasant". Besides, affabile is an indication for the introduction of the theme, not the entire piece.

You could say the same for so many composers, but sometimes I fantasise about simply having so much music in my mind. It’s almost impossible to fathom that Scriabin wrote all the works of genius he did. Imagine a life in which such divine bliss simply pours out of your head and heart, not to mention then being able to conjure these into playable pieces for others to experience. If anythinng reaffirms my belief in something greater, its that.

Wonderful. I thought I had heard everything by Scriabin and had all the music but missed this Op 38. Middle period where he starts to go off in another direction. A waltz with 4 notes per bar, that's Scriabin alright!

Have you encountered the hardly-performed and even more difficult to find (I've only found the music on its own and not in any anthologies) op 41 Poem? The form is an almost exact copy of the slow movement of Beethoven's Pathetique. The harmony is all Scriabin!

@@LucasPianoSalon they are not masters, they are among the pile of trash modernists that scriabin was sadly believed to be part of. Scriabin is neglected, because he, unlike all others of his time(excluding rachmaninoff), was not incompetent at all, and even exceeded chopin, bach and mozart in his mastery of music.

Константин. Я возвращаюсь и снова вижу, что по тонкости восприятия и бережности прикосновения Вы - абсолютно скрябинский пианист. Ещё Вы выстраиваете фразы очень динамично - они летят, невзирая на очевидные технические трудности этой многоголосной музыки. У Вас где-либо есть запись Прелюдий опус 16? Очень хотелось бы услышать именно Вашу версию. Жуков, ученик Генриха Нейгауза, меня не убеждает! 😊

One of the key elements of Scriabin that makes it so recognisable is how the melody turns around the notes, the same pattern appears in all his early pieces! like in the beginning of this piece, 0:05 mib reb fa lab, or inverted which is more common, e.g the first theme of his first symphony : mi fa# re# do#...

@@DJ-yq1jn It has no characteristic of a waltz except for the meter. It is only a waltz insofar as any piece in 3/4 is, and less so than most. Scriabin deliberately confuses the 3/4 rhythm at every opportunity with irregular tuplets and ties across bars. I don't think there's a single bar in the piece with three clear beats to a bar. How can you call that an "obvious waltz"?
