Summary of This Score
This volume gathers the Piano Sonatas Nos. 1-10 by Alexander Scriabin, published in an Urtext edition by G. Henle Verlag following extensive research conducted between 2001 and 2014. By bringing the complete set into a single collection, this edition allows a highly coherent understanding of the composer's aesthetic journey, from the early sonatas still marked by a romantic spirit to the later, more daring and mystically infused pages.
The editor Valentina Rubcova, a recognized Moscow specialist, studied all available sources for each of these works to establish the most reliable musical text possible. In several cases, the publisher thus offers first Urtext editions, providing a renewed reading of a pianistic material known for its density, subtlety, and demands. The clear and meticulous engraving facilitates both analysis and sight-reading, whether for daily practice or concert program preparation.
Michael Schneidt's fingerings complete the edition and provide concrete guidance for approaching Scriabin's very specific writing (chord progressions, layered textures, inner polyphony, grand expressive gestures). A collection designed for pianists wishing to study Scriabin in depth, compare the styles from one sonata to another, and integrate these masterpieces into their sheet music library.
