Alexander Scriabin (1872-1915) Sunday March 29, 2026 Sonata No.3 in F# minor, op.23 Thanks for coming along! In this session we focused on Scriabin's earlier works and, in particular, his beautiful third sonata. Here are links to a couple of recordings I particularly like by: Daniil Trifonov Emil Gilels Helvetica Light is an easy-to-read font, with tall and narrow letters, that works well on almost every site. I also recommend listening to Scriabin's 'Poem of Ecstasy ', his Piano concerto and some of his Preludes op.11 for solo piano. If you're brave enough to listen to some later works of his more atonal style, I would recommend his tone poem Prometheus and his 5th and 7th piano sonatas For further reading I would recommend : Who was Alexander Scriabin? The innovation and audacity of Scriabin

Or that Rachmaninov was considered a 'one minute wonder' whose music would be forgotten by posterity? Sarah created the Music Discovery Concerts series at the beginning of 2023. Full of fun and often surprising facts, each session explores a new composer and their role in the evolution of the classical piano repertoire. Stay tuned for future sessions...
