Michael Kaykov plays Scriabin Piano Sonata No. 6, Op. 62

Michael Kaykov, piano.
Scriabin's 6th Sonata, Op. 62, composed in 1911
This is Scriabin's first sonata featuring a new principle of tonal organization, one which completely avoids the use of diatonic scales and “traditional” bass motion by fourths and fifths. My published articles, freely available on michaelkaykovp... , may provide some theoretical background necessary to delve into Scriabin's late-period works (starting from Op. 59).
Recorded September 2021, at Skillman Music Recording Studio, NY.
Single-take, unedited.

Thank you!

[@martinpreisser4394]

Bravo! A very clear, lucide and colourful interpretation of a wonderful masterpiece of Scriabin

[@MichaelKaykov]

So happy that you liked it!

[@OE1FEU]

Well done, Michael. Look forward to hearing No. 8!

[@MichaelKaykov]

#8 could be a major, MAJOR project… certainly will attempt it at some point. All of the late Scriabin Sonatas are captivating and well worth the pain 😀

[@dr.brianjudedelimaphd743]

Beautifully played - one of my favourite composers as an influence

[@MichaelKaykov]

Thank you! I’ve really enjoyed your videos… especially the analysis of Tatum’s harmonies.

[@Bigblackpiano]
