ive only listened to a little but that was INSANE

WOW. Great climaxes (esp. in first half) enhanced by excellent dynamic control, super zmooth trills - just powerful playing all-round. The section 5:50-6:08 is stunning! I feel the electricity dies down at the very end, but your version definitely rates in my top 5 recordings of this piece. Truly laudable accomplishment dude. Congrats again. Post more!

Hi marik,
When it comes to Scriabin, I've always preferred the works under Op. 60 or so, more than the later "mystical" works. But I clicked on your performance of No. 10 anyway, and was glad I did. This is an eloquent performance! You display a thorough and mature musicianship in your playing. I always enjoy your postings.

Thanks for taking time to listend to it. Could you tell what measures or timing you are talking about.
Best, M

Hi, Marik. I am currently listening to your recording here; I don't know a lot about Scriabin (though he's on my (LONG) list), but obviously not everybody can just pull off a work like this ! The mysticism seems to suit you very nicely and suddenly I feel the need to pour through my Scriabin scores and recordings to better explore him myself.
I very much appreciate your imagination as demonstrated in this recording :).

Bit static.

soliloquy - you want a faster tempo? i think it has a sort of 'hard start' beginning by the way it is written. if you don't play the rhythms correctly - then you get canned for that. i think the motion (as it gets going) becomes less and less static - and builds upon each element with more motion. it's like you ARE starting with less (as the composer wrote less to work with at the beginning) and going to more, imo.

Wow. The clarity of your playing is frightening. Every detail of the piece is extremely vivid under your hands. I like the way you let the music evolve, without forcing the issue. Great playing. 8)

I couldn't disagree more. Marik, it's a wonderful performance, you give the music time to breathe, and let it speak from itself. I think, you are somebody who is able to combine very strong emotions with a certain objectivity. When you play Scriabin, you ARE Scriabin, in a certain sense. :)

Electrifying performance!

No I wasn't referring to the tempi. It was just coloristically and sonoristically static. There wasn't enough variety in the overall feeling of the piece to keep it quite interesting enough. It sort of... lacked in any sort of climaxes.

Here I agree with soliloquy - it's a bit too static. I think the atmosphere should be very nervous, even in the very slow parts, and then getting really hallucinative and feverish in the faster parts.
