The first volume in a Scriabin series with Brussels Philharmonic and Kazushi Ono.

'For me, Scriabin holds a central and unique role among composers. He is the first composer to engage deeply with mysticism, exploring its nuances through his music and offering us profound answers.' - Kazushi Ono

Can a composer like Alexander Scriabin be associated with any tradition at all, given the uniqueness of his musical language? Initially focusing on piano compositions, Scriabin later expanded to larger orchestral works, crafting five symphonies between 1899 and 1910. A noticeable evolution in composition unfolds, as Scriabin transitions from a late Romantic style to a more modernistic approach, drawing inspiration from symbolist poetry and philosophical figures. Envisioning himself as a musical messiah aiming to change the world, his Second Symphony provides a glimpse into this eccentric vision.

'There's little doubt that Kazushi Ono has an instinctive feeling for the music of Scriabin. In this warmly recorded release [\x85] he charts the ebb and flow of emotions that characterize the Wagnerian Second Symphony with conviction' \x96 BBC Music Magazine ****

'Music director Kazushi Ono has his Brussels group finely tuned, and the orchestra responds deftly to his baton. The group is in fine form and well-balanced throughout, with clear melodic lines given proper weight and strong support underneath. Very well recorded by Evil Penguin Classic's engineers' \x96 AllMusic

Scriabin: Symphony No.2 in C minor, Op. 29 I. Andante
