Nicolas Namoradze
In this lesson on Scriabin's ominously heroic C-sharp minor Etude, Op. 42 No. 5, Namoradze brings his powers of communicating musical narratives with his analytic gifts, breaking down the work's phrase structure and pianistic challenges. For Namoradze, this Etude is the center of gravity of Scriabin's Op. 42 set. The menacing character of its first theme gives way to one of the most soaring and jubilant melodies ever composed. The Etude presents many challenges of choreography and stamina, and Namoradze demonstrates how striving for clarity of texture can help bring more transparency and contour to the dramatic arc, while also fostering more facility in the physically demanding passagework.
