Title: Astounding performances of disturbing music
Product review: To hear the full range of these sonatas from start to finish is a disturbing experience, like seeing a brilliant and complex mind gradually unravel; or is it we who unravel, as Scriabin leaves us further and further behind? In any case, such difficult music must be accessible to only a few performers, and Hamelin's recording is nothing short of astounding. Where did he get that technique? I have been listening to this set for over a year now; it is one of the best CDs in my collection.
