Chopin: Piano Sonata No. 3, Op. 58 & Fantasie, Op. 49 - Scriabin: Piano Sonata No. 2, Op. 19 & Fantasie, Op. 28

On-going Elisabeth Leonskaja with material previously unavailable digitally: sonatas and fantasias by Chopin and Scriabin, showing the obvious influence of the first over the second, particularly in his early style. The somber Fantasie, Op. 28 is a pivotal work of Scriabin, initiating a period where the influence of Chopin starts to vanish in favor of Wagner’s chromaticism.
