This is a great little recital, instead of recording an organized set of works, Lisovskaya gives us a recital of bits and pieces, it's a great introduction to what Scriabin is all about, and also you can fit rather a lot of individual short miniatures onto a disc, Scriabin has the tendency to repeat himself and his ideas all over the place, so even when you hear another piece, you can be forgiven for thinking, 'haven't i heard this one already', but amongst a big selection like this, there's also truly unique gems to be heard, my only quibble is that Lisovskaya could have given us a greater variety of pieces to choose from, it mainly consists of Preludes and pieces, so why not Mazurkas and Waltzes?, but it's a fine recital all the same, this is the second time that this disc appears in my Blog [1st April 2011].
