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The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow.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 >>

Brahms op.118 ballade help needed!

on: June 27, 2009, 06:38:03 AM

According to the copy I have, Brahms calls for the soft pedal to be used during the middle section, but there is no indication of when he wants it to be taken off. Any suggestions???

When the main theme comes back. Good luck with it (remember not to make it to fast, just powerful)
