Looking for Scriabin Tragic Poem

[turner]

Hi--would like to know whether Scriabin's Tragic Poem is collected in any anthologies that are relatively inexpensive and accessible.  I already have the Dover Complete Preludes and Etudes and the Complete Sonata.  Would also like to know if it's in any online sources.

Thanks in advance!

Thal,

Are you willing to wait until next Easter for the Cadbury cream egg?  Haha! 

Thanks for the score!

Have you heard of this piece played by Tamar Shalvashvili on YouTube?  Apparently she's a blind pianist.  After hearing her, I said to myself "I've got to learn this piece!"

Here's the link:

Thanks again.

Thank you for alerting me to Dover's volume on miscellaneous works by Scriabin.

I bought my complete Scriabin Preludes and Etudes from Dover many, many years ago--late 70s? I bought my complete Scriabin sonatas around the same time from the MCA edition, because Dover hadn't published its edition.  Glad to see Dover has made these volumes available!

How does a blind pianist play classical music?

I understand that soem people can listen and repeat all the notes, but what about dynamics and accents etc?

Anyway her playing is superb in that clip.

I Googled a bit and found discussions on Wikepedia on how music notations may be transcribed through the Braille system for the blind:

From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musical_notation

Braille music is a complete, well developed, and internationally accepted musical notation system that has symbols and notational conventions quite independent of print music notation. It is linear in nature, similar to a printed language and different from the two-dimensional nature of standard printed music notation. To a degree Braille music resembles musical markup languages such as XML for Music or NIFF.

Then there's a separate, more detailed article on Braille music: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_music:

Braille music is a Braille code that allows music to be notated using Braille cells so that music can be read by visually impaired musicians. The Braille music system was originally developed by Louis Braille.

Braille music uses the same six-position Braille cell as literary braille (etc. etc.).

I see, thanks.
