My Take
Alexander Scriabin is one of the most fascinating figures in all of classical music to me. He began as a model student enchanted by Chopin, then steadily dismantled convention until his work fused sound, color and mystic philosophy into something genuinely otherworldly. That trajectory is the mark of a true visionary. His death at only 43 feels like a real loss. When I listen to his floating, unresolved late harmonies, I get chills, as if he alone was glimpsing a different universe. His music shows me just how far human imagination can travel, and I find that endlessly moving.
