🇷🇺Alexander Scriabin ： 4 Preludes g-moll Op.37-4

This prelude leaves a strong impression through its quietly tense melody and delicately shifting harmony. At the opening, a singing upper voice is gently supported by the accompaniment, and the music gradually expands within the brief piece toward a single climax. The ensuing calm carries an afterglow that seems to inherit the opening material. It is important to keep the melody from being buried in the inner voices or accompaniment and to sustain the natural breath of each phrase. Change the pedal in accordance with the harmonic shifts so that the sonority remains clear, and shape the dynamic transitions patiently; this brings out the intimate and richly shaded character of the music.
