It's been so long since I last used google forms, I completely forgot that you could do that lol.
Not going to do that though to keep some of the surprise. :)

While vote #18 continues to be a sweep (over 60% of the vote for one piece), vote #17 is dead even!
Cast your vote to help decide the outcome of Ballade no. 1 vs. Hamelin Cadenza!

Update: another vote has been cast, breaking the tie.

All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
