Alexander Scriabin ： Sonata No.6 Op.62

Scriabin’s Piano Sonata No. 6, Op. 62 is a single-movement work imbued with deep mystery and unease, in which it is difficult to perceive a clear tonal center. From a quiet atmosphere, the tension gradually builds, passing through sharply contrasting episodes and lyrical passages before moving toward an urgent climax. Viewing the work as one continuous large-scale flow makes its detailed colors and sense of structure easier to perceive. In performance, it is important to clarify chords that can easily become blurred with careful pedaling, while bringing out the movement of the inner voices and changes in tone. Even in forte passages, avoid relying on force alone and maintain the direction of the tension; in quieter sections, making use of resonance and silence will heighten the work’s distinctive dreamlike atmosphere.
