Actually the entire development section (3:21-4:40) in this interpretation is one of my favourite parts of any piece, ever.

Scriabin was a big fan of Wagner, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, and Beethoven. So he certainly learned from some of the best orchestrators.

It's amazing that Scriabin could be prolific as a Romantic and an Avante Garde composer also. Just on those grounds, you can label him as unbelievable. This really is a great piece. And the best part of it is, I don't really have an opinion on who interprets this best; I'm really caught between Richter and Sofrinitsky.

i dont know if i am weird-sounding, but this peice makes me feel in love, walking by the sea with the moon playing on the water softly- a night to remember and cherish. It gives me the chills completely
