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The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow.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

Another reason to keep a stable humidity/temperature environment has to do with the fine print on many used/new piano sales guarantees/warranties. The piano is often only valid on certain parts of the warranty if its not exposed to extremes in humidity or temperature. On a complaint, if they assess that the piano was exposed to these extremes (eg. they take a reading with a hygrometer/thermometer) the piano owner can find themselves out of luck on them honouring the warranty.
