Alan Silver for Connoisseur Society Recorded 1970 at Saint Paul’s Chapel, Columbia University, New York City Piano: Baldwin SD-10 Engineer: David B. Jones Mastering: Michele Stone, KM Records, Burbank, CA Production Assistant: Donalyn Catalano Annotation Editor: Ara Guzelimian Digitally remastered by Robert C. Ludwig Director: Keith Holzman Design by David Cohen The Scriabin piano sonatas, performed here by American pianist Ruth Laredo, provide a musical biography, outlining the composer’s career and his stylistic progression. The New York Times praised Laredo's “sensuous, beautifully controlled playing," which expressed the “mad and slightly evil quality” of Scriabin’s work. ..Ruth Laredo draws considerably more colour [than John Ogdon]. She makes far more, too, of the sinuous right-hand triplets of [Op. 8] No. 1 and discovers much poetry in No. 3... [Laredo] maintains a warm and rounded tone yet keeps everything clear and exact... There is much sensitive playing in Laredo's account of this highly demanding score [Sonata no 9], and this [recording] as a whole may safely be recommended to all concerned with Scriabin. -- Gramophone [2/1975] Sharing Widget |
