Scriabin Preludes - "Titles" suggestions
on: January 15, 2011, 01:42:02 AM
So for my next recital I decided to do a series of 24 preludes with a twist, 12 Chopin plus 12 Scriabin alternating like C/S/C/S.... etc.

The thing is I am in the process of gathering information to put down in the printed program of the recital. And while Chopin's Preludes have been extensively analyzed, I cant seem to find almost anything about Scriabin's.

I would be thankfull for any information regarding Scriabin's Preludes, the early ones more specifically.

And while at it, I would like to hear suggestions about possible titles to them. As I intend to include the titles of the Chopin ones given by both Cortot and Bullow, I would like to suggest "names" for the Scriabin ones as well.

Anyone?

It's for the composer to name the pieces, not us.
