Scriabin’s Etude Op. 2, No. 1, in C-sharp minor, composed in 1887, was written in a highly lyrical tonal language inspired by the music of Chopin.
Alexander Scriabin (1871- 1915) was a Russian composer and pianist. He was highly regarded during his lifetime, and is a favorite composer among pianists.
His early piano works resemble Frederic Chopin’s and include music in many forms that Chopin himself employed. Scriabin’s middle-period pieces and late-period pieces employed very unusual harmonies and textures.
Here is pianist Emil Gilels to play this Etude for you:
