Scriabin at his most languorous and seductive. This work and the 6th sonata which immediately follows (by opus number), are stylistically transitional; the language is based on the major-minor scale. Next up is Prometheus the Poem of Fire, in Scriabin's mature harmonic language, mystic chord and all.
The work is distinctive in the way he articulates phrases with silence.
Created, edited and mastered in Digital Performer 5.13 (MOTU) using Ivory (Synthogy) sound libraries.

From Wikipedia: In 1963, Stravinsky stated in a conversation with American conductor Robert Craft in their book Dialogues and a Diary (1963) that the Concerto is perhaps my Favorite among my purely instrumental pieces.[1] Stravinsky claimed to have been inspired by variations by Brahms and Beethoven and, especially, by Beethovens fugues.
Academics like to point to the first movement as an early use of metric modulation; yeah, big deal. Stravinsky Concerto for 2 pianos](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/UEkhOUKXR9I/mqdefault.jpg)
