4.0 excellentBedex | November 12th 21

One of the more consistent Scriabin piano sonatas so far, except perhaps in the last movement. I like to picture 1 as what Debussy would write if he came home drunk and a bit angry late at night and hammered the piano a bit too hard in places, but still crafted beauty out of it. It is the 'Drammatico' movement after all. 2 feels like playful villain music, like what would play as background of the evil plot in an old Tom & Jerry cartoon, and is short enough to make it work. 3 is softer, sadder, and perhaps my fave track here. 4 starts kind of like 2 with a ncie added cascadic feel, but then the movement is a bit erratic, getting very intense in the midtrack, Gershwiney almost in its abrupts accelerations and transitions from soft to intense. I liked it okay but I find it's not on par with the rest. 3.9
