Thanks kmads, I’m glad you enjoyed the series! It was great fun to make, and I’m actually a little surprised I was able to finish it (it’s hard to actually finish projects like these). 😂
i had a feeling this one would be the winner! this one is delightful, it is def my fav major key prelude from the op 11 set. The final one, d minor, (funy that its the parallel minor) is my favorite minor key one
The d minor one is great. Such drama! I really need to learn it. Do you have a favorite performance of it? I’ve been surprised at how wildly different they can be-always interesting to see how the different pros handle the momentum, and even that big right hand treble chord at the end.
I’m thinking about playing this with Chopin’s B-minor prelude, which this prelude seems to be paying homage to. How much more difficult do you think this one is (vs. Chopin’s)?
Hmm...that could be a fun pair of pieces! For me right now, I'd say the Chopin might be a 3.5 out of 10 difficulty, and the Scriabin would be a 5. More advanced pianists might rate them closer, and less advanced pianists might rate them farther apart. Two main challenges with the Scriabin are (1) managing the momentum and the different voices at the climax, and (2) the right hand rising arpeggio flourishes at the end, which are a bit awkward but need to sound natural and silky smooth. Try learning those parts first--if you think you can handle those, the rest of the piece should not present too much trouble. Good luck!
