SCRIABINIADЕ: AN EVENING WITH SCRIABIN

We continue The Lilia Khakimova and C. Robert Bunch Concert Series with this rare evening of musical brilliance with “Scriabiniade: An Evening with Scriabin”, performed by the renowned pianist Dr. James Palmer.

This solo piano recital is a unique opportunity for Houston audiences to experience the colorful world of Alexander Scriabin, the visionary Russian composer whose music pushed the boundaries of harmony and emotion. The one-hour-and-twenty-minute program, presented with intermission, features a carefully curated selection of Scriabin’s early and late works, including fiery études, luminous preludes, poetic miniatures, and three of his boldest sonatas.
