Scriabin Question

on: September 20, 2006, 12:51:43 AM

I know they are a lot of Scriabin lovers in this site and id like to ask you something:

In your opinions which are the most gothic / darkest preludes or poems he wrote?

Thanks

The masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the cocomposer what he ought to have composed.

I don't think his music is dark. Let alone gothic, no way.

Not gothic, but he certainly wrote bold music.

I would say Vers la Flamme is incredibly dark.
