This dazzling new release marks the first in a new cycle of Scriabin symphonies, and one of the most significant of all Valery Gergiev’s projects with the London Symphony Orchestra. Anyone with musical curiosity will surely welcome the chance to explore such an idiosyncratic composer.
'Gergiev and the LSO give thrilling live performances and one senses the rarely achieved, special connection between performers and Scriabin’s enigmatic sound-world' (MusicWeb International)
AllMusic, USA
'Gergiev and the orchestra become one organic unit with an inner logic that this indeed exalted, passionate music demands. A wonderful new issue I’ve enjoyed tremendously' (The Whole Note, Canada)
