BBC Music Magazine Top Selection; Fono Forum: outstanding. This album features the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra under the direction of Leif Segerstam, performing three significant works by Alexandr Scriabin: Symphony No. 2 in C minor, Op. 29, Reverie, Op. 24, and Le Poème de l'extase, Op. 54. These pieces reflect Scriabin's transition from late-Romanticism to his unique, mystical style, marked by lush orchestration and innovative harmonic language. The album highlights Scriabin's thematic exploration of spiritual triumph, as well as his distinctive orchestral color, which influenced later composers like Igor Stravinsky.
