Scriabin Julian – 4 Preludes
Julian Aleksandrovich Scriabin (12 February 1908 – 22 June 1919) is the youngest son of Russian composer Alexander Scriabin and Tatiana de Schloezer. He was himself a promising composer and pianist, but he died at the age of eleven in mysterious circumstances. In the last year of his life he wrote four preludes in his father’s style, the authorship of which is questioned by some researchers.
Those preludes were published for the first time 95 years after his death by Edition Octoechos. Musicologists have described Julian Scriabin both as a successor of his father and as an early representative of the early Russian and Soviet avant-garde of the 1920s.
