Where it came from
Released in 1978 under the Decca label, this recording features Vladimir Ashkenazy performing a selection of Alexander Scriabin’s complex piano works, including the Sonata No. 2, the Sonata No. 7, and the Sonata No. 10. Ashkenazy, widely regarded as a preeminent interpreter of Scriabin’s music, sought to illuminate the mystical and avant-garde sensibilities that define the composer's transition from Romanticism to his own unique harmonic language. The collection highlights Scriabin’s evolving creative trajectory, offering listeners a focused look at his intense late-period output.
The album serves as a cornerstone of the Decca SXL series, which was renowned for its high-fidelity engineering and commitment to technical precision. Ashkenazy’s approach is characterized by a balance of intellectual rigor and emotional fluidity, capturing the volatile, shimmering quality of the 'White Mass' sonata and the ethereal dissonance of the later pieces. Upon release, the record was well received for its clarity and interpretive depth, solidifying the pianist’s reputation as an authoritative voice in the interpretation of early twentieth-century Russian repertoire.
