Handel Passacaglia

I am now interested in the fairly obscure work.  I played through part of it once and enjoyed it, but I read that it is an excellent technical work and it is not on gamingforce or SMA.

It'd be great if you had it!

Toward the Flame: Boris Petrushansky’s Journey Through Scriabin’s Universe

Alexander Scriabin died in April 1915, at forty-three, of a fever that took him within a week — leaving his great mystical project unfinished.
