A strange request
on: June 23, 2007, 01:13:03 PM
Does anybody know where I can find a picture of Arnold Bocklin's "The Return"? It's a painting that Rachmaninoff found inspiration for his 32/10. I didn't know where to put this.

I have looked for that one since ages and I couldn't find it yet  :( Perhaps it is not even existing. If someone knows it, I'd like to see it too.

Very impressive.

Thanks... It didn't live up to my expectactions  :-[, well maybe I'll like it the more I look at it, like how I didn't love the Chopin Ballades at first.

Poems of Ecstasy – Scriabin’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
