Alexander Scriabin: Symphonie Nr.2

Magnificent musical discoveries For the Japanese conductor Kazushi Ono, Scriabin occupies a central and unique role among the composers, because he was the first to engage intensively with mysticism, explored its nuances in his music and gave us profound answers. His Symphony no. 2, composed in 1901, is deeply rooted in the great romantic tradition, highly emotional and yet free from the sometimes hypernerving megalomania that would characterize his later work; nevertheless, it offers a series of magnificent musical discoveries.
