Description

The piano repertoire is replete with virtuosic showpieces, but Scriabin's Etude in D-sharp minor, Op. 8, stands out as one of the most popular. This explosive study in octaves, with its title "Patetico," unleashes a passionate frenzy of sound that would be almost inconceivable to omit from a Horowitz concert. Henle's Urtext edition, featuring fingering by acclaimed pianist Boris Giltburg, extends an open invitation to aspiring and seasoned virtuosos alike to take on this dazzling etude.
