Marc-André Hamelin plays Scriabin Sonata No.1 Op.6 I.
Underrated Sonata in my opinion, one of the best of his romantic era.

  • Hammie's recordings of the Sonatas is one of my favorites. John Ogden is up there for me too.

  • @ReturnOfTheStienway

    Imo Hakon Austbo's sonatas are the best, have you heard of it ?

  • In my opinion, It's not true in every situation. For example if you compare a really early work of Scriabin like Impromptu Op.2 No.3 and his Fantasy Op. 28, even if it's in the " romantic " period, the complexity of the Fantasy (structures , voices etc) makes that piece much more interessant than the little impromptu (and much more difficult too :p).

    And we can't really compare early Scriabin and late Scriabin, it's not the same language. But we can say that his late work are more sophisticated.

  • @MagicSkryabin - There are links between all periods of Scriabin's composition

  • That's why i said we can't "really" compare. That means there is a link but not very evident.

  • His late works dont lack of beauty, it's just a different sort of beauty, a much complicated sort of beauty :)

    And Marc-Andre Hamelin?

    Scriabin's sonatas should be better known than this...

  • @MagicSkryabin No... are they on YouTube?

  • Bastante rápido que. La toca el hamelin

  • oh.. so fast? :/ Hamelin's passion for show.

  • Scriabin is God. I have not a single doubt after listening to this wonder.

  • This is one of my favorite pieces of all time

  • Scriabin's musical language is so individual and one-of-a-kind even in his very early period.
