[@TraumPiano]

Hi guys, this is the first uploading of Scriabin’s Sonata! I’m sad that I can’t play all of your requests quickly but I always write down on my repertoire list and practice whenever you request. (Absolutely Including Alkan, Rachmaninoff and Liszt Rhapsody) Since so many people asked me the Paganini - Liszt etude no.6 so I would like to play when we reach 10k subscribers. But I think No. 6 is too short for this special event, so I am going to play complete Grandes études de Paganini which are six of them. I am so excited and looking forward to sharing with you soon!

[@miguelgeraldino2341]

Oh yes my boy Alkan

[@saveliykudriavsev2193]

More jazz and Gershwin!!!plzz

[@JacobSimpson]

Awesome! Looking forward to them! And can't wait for Liszt Etude No. 6, it's one of my favorites! No 6 is too short so I'm gonna play the entire set😂 amazing!

My dreams have come true. A piano channel has uploaded some Scriabin at last. Not only that, it’s one of my favourite of his sonatas.

[@TraumPiano]

😁

[@anh-vu]

Please play "vers la flamme". Scriabin and you desserve it

[@thebrygi1648]

I agree! It seems like people don’t talk about Scriabin enough and this sonata is easily my favorite! It has the perfect Scriabin feel to it

[@zerois2801]

@@thebrygi1648 white this is one of his best piano pieces imo I don't really think its the "perfect scriabin" feel in terms of style because weirdly while its a amazing piece in his discography its one of the outliers and more unique pieces really this is one of his strangest pieces in terms of style and he didn't really make anything like this afterwards

[@zerois2801]

the only thing remotely similar is the 5th sonata but even that is vastly different

[@danielzaytsev820]

You know it’s interesting to hear how the 4th sonata is the break point of Scriabin, this sonata features some of the new harmonies he discovered ( as the first movement ) and also the harmonies( style )he was known for in the young period ( as in the last section with the chords in the second movement). So this ( as well as the 5th) is one of the most important sonatas for Scriabin and for us.

[@na-kun2136]

But if we remebmer his late sonatas this just nothing compared with for example white mass or black.

[@balladewilliams]

na -kun no.8 is better than both the white and black masses imo. no.5 is most popular for good reason and no.4 is extremely underrated even though quite accessible.

[@pavlenikacevic4976]

This is mind-blowingly good wtf. Like this is not some typical youtube pianist stuff. This is some real world-class concert pianist piano playing right here. This is actually one of the best recordings of this I've ever heard. The first movement was probably *the* best I've ever heard tbh (the voicing!) I'd love to hear Scriabin's second sonata too, if it's within your vast repertoire.
