Scriabin's Preludes
on: July 09, 2011, 12:11:17 AM
I am a pianist who can handle level 6/7 pieces and can barely get by a level 8 piece. What do you guys think of Scriabin's Preludes? Around what is the average level or just general difficulty?
Working on:
Bach Invention 7 (also Tureck's book)
Clementi Sonatina 3
Rachmaninoff Moment Musicaux no. 3
Skrjabin Prelude op.11 no.4
Joplin The Favorite Rag

The vast majority of his preludes are harder than grade 8, closer to ATCL. I wouldn't recommend playing them if you are finding grade 8 pieces to difficult.

Hi, can I up the topic?

I'd like to know more about those preludes, I love them and I'd like to know which are the most beautifull in your opinion and what are the level of difficulty of those pieces?
I don't believe that they are all grade 8+... I read the first one, it was quite easy and I'm learning the op.17 n°3 which is quite easy too, soo what about the others?

Excuse my english, it's not my mother tongue ^^'

Thx for your reply.
