An illuminating introduction to the musical riches of the wider Scriabin family, unrivalled in the catalogue, presenting many unfamiliar names and unknown pieces within the noble lineage of the Russian piano tradition. In a generous 85-minute survey, the pianist Matteo Cardelli presents piano music composed over a period of exactly 150 years by musicians who are all related (either by blood or by marriage) to Alexander Scriabin (1872-1915). Scriabin took his first lessons at the piano with his mother, who had studied with the renowned pedagogue Theodor Leschetitzky at the conservatoire in St Petersburg.
