Oleg Marshev - Alexander Scriabin: Scriabin Piano Music Volume 2

The eagerly awaited follow-up! Experience Alexander Scriabin’s artistic maturation and the remarkable evolution of his piano music in Oleg Marshev’s masterful interpretations.

Scheduled for release in autumn 2026, this album directly continues Danacord Records’ acclaimed Scriabin series. While the first volume focused on the composer’s early works, Volume 2 takes the listener on a fascinating journey through the period in which Scriabin began to break away from his traditional, Chopin-influenced idiom and forge his own late-Romantic, tritone-rich and mystical sound world.

Once again, pianist Oleg Marshev combines commanding technical assurance with a profound understanding of the Russian piano tradition. The album offers a comprehensive survey of the composer’s most significant works from this transitional period. At its heart is Scriabin’s monumental Third Piano Sonata, appearing in Marshev’s discography for the first time.

This essential, high-quality release (catalogue number DACOCD1020) is a must-have for collectors of piano music and admirers of Scriabin’s works.
