Six Sonatas by Alexander Scriabin
Lawrence Budmen of the American Record Guide remarks of this CD, "Big-boned pianism,
rich tonal colors and dazzling technique are on display here. Has Scriabin ever been played better?"
Order this disc of the sonatas 3, 4, 5, 8, 9 and 10 and find out for yourself! I have included a sample track below
to whet your appetite. Romeo Records 7232.

The Complete Mazurkas of Karol Szymanowski
 Pictured
is my compact disc recording (2002) of the Complete Mazurkas of Karol Szymanowski. These exquisite mazurkas
were the subject of my doctoral paper Karol Szymanowski: Revitalizing the Solo Piano Mazurka
Genre (2001), my AMS Lowens Award lecture on that subject, and my paper The 'Szymanowski
clash': Harmonic Conflict and Ambiguity in the Szymanowski Mazurkas, which won the
2003 Stefan and Wanda Wilk Prize for Research in Polish Music. This article will be published shortly online at
the Polish Music Journal. For those unfamiliar with this composer,
I recommend the informative website Karol Szymanowski info.
