The piano does not lack for virtuoso showpieces. But this Etude in d-sharp minor from Scriabin's op. 8 definitely ranks among the highest in terms of popularity. A Horowitz concert without this explosive study in octaves would have been almost inconceivable. Its title is “patetico” and it does indeed unleash a passionate frenzy of sound. Henle offers its single Urtext edition of this dazzling Etude with fingering by the world-renowned pianist Boris Giltburg: an open invitation to all current or budding virtuosi!
