Scriabin Sonatas 9 and 10 August 12, 2009, 06:33:37 AM by lombardian

Hello Everybody,
I am preparing for a competition, and the second round calls for some 20th and 21st century music. Naturally I feel inclined to put some Scriabin, who I have just recently discovered, in the mix. I have been listening to his Sonatas alot, particularly the later ones, and am now faced with the difficult prospect of choosing between my two favorites: 9 and 10, which seem to me to form somewhat of a complementary pair. That is to say, 9 is sinister, brooding, while no 10 is otherworldly, exalted, even joyous. My question for any of the more experienced Scriabin players there may be out there is simply, what is a better competition piece? Which is musically more difficult, and perhaps more challenging to convey convincingly to a jury?
Many Thanks
Nick

"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.
