Piano Concerto in F-sharp minor, op. 20 / Symphony no. 3 in C minor, op. 43 «Le Divin Poème»

Album by Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin & Roland Pöntinen & Kungliga Filharmonikerna & Leif Segerstam

This album presents two orchestral works by Alexander Scriabin — a piano concerto composed in 1896 and a symphony composed in 1904. The music moves from late-Romantic pianistic virtuosity and rich chromatic harmony in the concerto to a more expansive, mystical orchestral palette in the symphony, marking Scriabin’s transition from Romantic influences toward his later, more colouristic and metaphysical idiom in his compositional trajectory.
