Toward the Flame: Boris Petrushansky’s Journey Through Scriabin’s Universe

Alexander Scriabin died in April 1915, at forty-three, of a fever that took him within a week — leaving his great mystical project unfinished. He left behind a piano language no one had spoken before, one that a century later still questions every interpreter who approaches it. Boris Petrushansky has spent a lifetime preparing his answer. In a new album and an extended conversation with Piano Street, he traces Scriabin’s path from the early Preludes to the final, shattering Op. 74. Read more

That should be "But fortunately we also have the [grammar police]."

Fortunately we also have a few freelance pedants as well.

Do you think this forum is a place where beginners can ask questions and improve their skill by receiving intelligent responses from people who have already walked the road?
Yes. For me, at least.

Or is it a place where a few claimed good pianists answer simple questions snottily, bash questions that they deem "worthless" and gang up on people who disagree with them?

While I have seen that before in other threads on numerous occasions, it has not happened to me.
Chopin Op 18, Op 53, 62/2, 37/2, 10/12
Fauré Nocturne 5
Bach English Suite 3
Brahms 79/2
