Scriabin Preludes
on: May 14, 2003, 03:46:41 AM
I am soon to start learning a number of the Scriabin Preludes from Op. 11,13,15 & 16.  I am wondering if there are any editions of the music that people could recommend.  I have played other pieces by Scriabin previously and have used various editions, including Dover, but find the Dover editions poorly laid out.  ie cramped bars etc.

What good quality editions could people recommend.

::) Tough call, Greg D. My advice: if you're in a large town go to your local library and sift through the Scriabin collection. If you're in a small town.....well......

I get my sheet music from sheetmusicplus.com. I took a look at their site today and they also offer the Scriabin preludes in the CF Peters edition. I have Peters for the etudes. It is good. I would order one set and see how it is. The prices will add up though. I bet they have fingerings but I don't know for sure. Another edition is International which I have for op 11 and a selection of preludes. Also good, but I do not know if it is still in print.
