🇷🇺Alexander Scriabin ： Allegro de concert b-moll Op.18

Scriabin’s Allegro de concert in B-flat minor, Op. 18 is a highly effective character piece, marked by the shadowed color of B-flat minor and strong forward momentum. A forceful, tense theme alternates with contrasting lyrical material, leading through thematic development and intensification to brilliant climaxes. From the opening, it is important to convey the weight of the sonority and the clarity of the rhythm while carefully bringing out melodies that might otherwise be covered by inner voices or accompaniment. Rather than rushing the tempo, maintain the broad flow of the phrases and shape the gradations of dynamics and the direction toward each climax; this allows both the passion and the delicacy of the music to emerge.
