I think Iā€™m with you on all except 1. I think Scriabinā€™s is superior. Prokofievā€™s is great, but itā€™s a bit like that early Wagner opera where 50 people die in act 1.

3 is shady too. Scriabinā€™s 3rd is one of his best loved sonatas, but itā€™s my least favourite of his early ones so I guess Iā€™m fine with having the gap turned towards Prokofiev if thatā€™s how you want it.

Did Pogorelich record the 3rd sonata?

No, but he played it in public during the 1984/1985 season (although I have to concede that the performance which has found its way out on youtube was pretty ghastly).

Iā€™m very surprised the 10th is so high up on the list - and that the 7th is so far down. At the very bottom in fact. I expected to find 6 or 8 there.

I just listened to your 7th. I still find this work essentially impenetrable except when played by Volodos. I donā€™t know why. The slower Zhukov perf is gonna be next, see if da l*ck of speed helps.

As I hinted in the description, while I essentially think Richter does what Sofronitsky should have with it, I donā€™t think heā€™s spot on with the narrative. I think he nails that boiling demonism of the late sonatas and suceedes in taking it in to the ethereal, but to my ears it comes across more as dark, satanic and overwhelming than cleansing, white and celestial. Itā€™s clearly a battle between the two, so theyā€™re both in there, but Iā€™d like him - or someone - to isolate the bright passages better and see to that these are always the leading line when they appear, rather than the crashing bass chords etc which both he and Volodos let take precedence.

Scriabin started as a Chopin clone, very conservative, but developed his own harmonic language with almost cumplete atonality towards the end of his life.

With Prokofiev, he followed a bit the opposite way. His early compositions were shockingly modern, dissonant for those times, and when he left Russia after da revolution he was one of da ā€˜modernisticā€™ composers. But when he returned to live in the Soviet Union, there was a new simplicity and even ā€˜conservatismā€™ in his musical language. Not that it made the quality of his composing less - some of his best works were composed in the 1940s.
