Mysteriously mercurial and powerfully passionate interpretation of Scriabin's great "Black Mass" Sonata No. 9, Op. 68 at Bechstein Piano Center, New York, NY, March 31, 2011. From the soft chromatic beginning, Nataliya Medvedovskaya (aka Natasha Meadow) cajoles and seduces the listener with a clarity of motivic development, shifting textures, polyrhythms, and alluring harmonic shapes, step by step into a brewing witchraft of poisonous dread and firery, cacaphonous descent into Hell itself. The end is aggressive and at the same time terrifyingly beautiful. This complex and very demanding work of Scriabin is often described as more visionary and radical than that of many other composers before or after.
