Scriabin Etudes
on: November 10, 2011, 10:16:47 AM
Which one is the easiest/hardest you think? Out of Op. 8/3, 8/7, 8/9 and 8/12 ?
Currently learing:
- Chopin: Ballade No.3
- Scriabin: Etude Op. 8 No. 2
- Rachmaninoff: Etude Op. 33 No. 6
- Bach: P&F No 21 WTC I

8/12 is by far the easiest compared to the other 3 IMO.
Perfection itself is imperfection.

Easiest to hardest: op8 9,3,7,12. But this is just my opinion. For what I know, 8/12 has to be the hardest out of the whole set of etudes.

on another note, if there was a 42/5, that would be at the tail end of the list. hardest etude ever. by scriabin.
Funny? How? How am I funny?
