Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This unique volume of Alexander Scriabin's piano music combines all of the Russian composer's widely admired Po#65533;mes, which exude the richness and complexity of his later style, with virtually all of the earlier, more Chopinesque Mazurkas and all eight Impromptus. The complete collection contains 75 piano works of varying length and difficulty, including a number of compositions with unique titles.
In style, they represent the full span of Scriabin's musical life, from his early romanticism to the bold chromaticism, mysticism, and ecstatic fervor of his mature period. In technique, these compositions embody Scriabin's distinctive keyboard invention, vividly displaying his use of chords built on unusual intervals, unconventional rhythmic groupings, use of the trill for coloristic effect, and rich, luxuriant sonority. Pianists will find in these highly original works, reprinted here from authoritative Russian editions, piano music that intimately reveals one of the most distinctive musical personalities of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Reprint of works originally published 1893-1972.

Author notes provided by Syndetics

Aleksandr Scriabin received his musical education from his aunt. At the age of 12, he began piano lessons. He entered the Moscow Conservatory in 1898 as a student of Safanov. In 1899 Safanov conducted Scriabin's first orchestra piece, Reverie, in Moscow. He also conducted Scriabin's first symphony in 1901. Scriabin was profoundly influenced during his early years by Chopin, Liszt, and Wagner, but he soon developed his own style. Scriabin was a genuine innovator of harmony. (Bowker Author Biography)
