This recording was conceived as a portrait of the artist through the mosaic of his works, proceeding in chronological order – from the age of innocence to the age of experience. “How he relishes Chopin's influence...His performance of the Fourth Sonata ('towards a blue flame') is a marvel of clarity and musicianship...More generally, everything is given with a warmth and sincerity that are the reverse of extravagance or self-conscious idiosyncrasy: as an introduction to Scriabin's compulsive genius this disc could hardly be bettered.” Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2012 | | | Usually despatched in 4 - 5 working days. |

| |  | Joseph Moog - Divergences
Following his critically acclaimed Claves release ‘Metamorphonse(n)’ – cat.no 502905, Joseph Moog focuses his attention to contrasting worlds of the first half of the 20th century. The young German pianist presents rare works by Jongen, Reger & Scriabin with the booklet notes comparing the three in a most interesting way - “French spirit, German soul and Russian Mysticism,” all in all, an intriguing combination. “Joseph Moog, still only 21, is bristling with talent and assurance...[He] takes us to Scriabin's perfumed, exotic world with cohesive and powerful readings of the Fourth and Seventh Sonatas played with unerring precision and exhilarating abandon...Another impressive disc from a name to watch.” Gramophone Magazine, August 2010 | | | This item is currently out of stock at the UK distributor.

| |  | Scriabin - Piano MusicPoems, waltzes & dances
Numbered among the musical elect of her generation, the multi-award-winning Xiayin Wang presents a recital of piano music that virtually spans Scriabin’s career. The mysterious impressionism of Vers la flamme (Towards the Flame) builds to an exhilarating intensity that is matched by the two contrasting Poems. From his early Waltzes and Polonaise, with their echoes of Chopin, via the rhapsodic abandon of the Fantaisie, to the Two Dances, composed shortly before his death, these works chart an almost mystical trajectory through the composer’s life. “Scriabin’s Fantaisie in B minor Op. 28 was a luscious wash of colour, infused with big swirls of sound. [Yang’s] soon-to-be released recording of the composer’s music should be a dandy.” The Washington Post “Wang plays all this music with a special brilliance and refinement… she comes up with a performance of Vers la flamme that moves superbly from a brooding menace to a final apocalyptic blaze. …an unusually perceptive introduction to Scriabin's piano music...” Gramophone Magazine, Awards Issue 2009 | | | (also available to download from $6.00) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.

After the success of her Ligeti CD (10 from Repertoire, 5 from Fono Forum, 5 from Classic Cd plus a wealth of excellent reviews in renowned music magazines), the young Canadian pianist Lucille Chung has turned to some of the major piano pieces by Alexander Scriabin, one of the most unique and enigmatic figures of Russian music astride the 19th and 20th centuries. The artistic course traced in our CD starts with the early 24 Preludes Op. 11 and ends with the aphoristic and innovative 5 Preludes Op. 74 (the last collection composed by Scriabin), passing through the 5 Preludes Op. 16, the two Poèmes Op. 71, Vers la flamme Op. 72 and the 2 Danses Op. 73. | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.
