Scriabin Sonatas

In order of difficulty, please.
I'm really liking 4, what's like it? (standard rep. comparison)

In my stupid opinion:
8, 7, 6, 5, 10, 4, 9, 3, 1, 2
All very subjective of course. 4 is extremely awkward in many places in the prestissimo movement, but if you can negotiate the chopin 1st or 4th ballades, you should be able to handle this piece fairly well, I suppose. The coda requires a good deal of strength and finger independence (not to mention those nasty leaps in the left hand).

4th is my absolute favourite. In words of scriabin... first movement is reaching for the star, the second is actually flying up into it....

For a good laugh, check out my posts in the audition room, and tell me exactly how terrible they are
