Alexander Scriabin: Preludes The 89 Preludes in Scriabin’s output illustrate his unique artistic evolution. The 24 Preludes Op. 11, dating from 1888, are clearly in the Romantic tradition and show much influence from Chopin and Liszt, although Scriabin’s own unique voice can already be discerned. The five sets Opp. 31, 33, 35, 37 and 39 were all written in the remarkably productive year of 1903, when Scriabin was moving ever closer toward atonality, while his personal life was marked by the deepening complexity of his theosophical ponderings. The extremely concentrated Five Preludes, Op. 74, of 1914 were among Scriabin’s very last works. By this time he was a radically changed musician, on the doorstep of complete atonality and, to his own mind, the representative of divine creative force in an increasingly complex mystical world-view.

Do you prefer hes more "romantic" compositions, or do you think his more "Experimental" compositions are better, both favoured and musically.
I personally prefer his earlier romantic works, etudes op.8 no.11 and op.2 no.1 and preludes. u?

Scriabin Preludes February 02, 2007, 02:11:29 PM by dignam

I'm interested in playing some Scriabin preludes but don't know where to begin. Any advice on difficulty? I've browsed through some scores and I have several recordings. But we all know how decptive a thing can look or sound until you really dig in and try to master it. <g>
I've been practising a Scriabin Romance arranged for Horn and Piano to play with a neighbor and it has piqued my interest. At random I downloaded op. 13 no. 3. So lovely though a bit tricky with the metronomic variation within each bar.
I am recently returned to playing the piano after about 15 years off. I studied for many years before that and am gradually getting my hands back, playing Chopin Waltzes and the Berceuse, an English Suite, Mozart sonatas and some Rachmaninoff.
Any advice on a way in to the Scriabin preludes?
many thanks,
dignam

| What customers said about pianostreet.com: |
"All of my students are members of Pianostreet and many of my teacher colleagues have joined as well.
It is an excellent resource for students and teachers alike and there is very rarely any need to visit another website or music store in search of sheet music."

"As a frequent user of pianostreet.com I find it easy to navigate, great value for money and very professional. The pieces are all well-graded and the audio is really useful, especially for pieces not heard before. I have recommended the site to many of my friends who play the piano. Keep up the good work."

"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
