	Alexander Scriabin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Alexander Nikolayevich Scriabin (Алекса́ндр Никола́евич Скря́бинь; sometimes transliterated as Skryabin or Skrjabin) (January 6, 1872 – April 27, 1915) was a Russian composer and pianist.
		Theosophist and composer Dane Rudhyar wrote that Scriabin was "the one great pioneer of the new music of a reborn Western civilization, the father of the future musician," (Rudhyar 1926b, 899) and an antidote to "the Latin reactionaries and their apostle, Stravinsky" and the "rule-ordained" music of "Schoenberg's group." (Ibid., 900-901).
		The development of Scriabin's voice or style can be followed in his ten piano sonatas: the earliest are in a fairly conventional late-Romantic idiom and show the influence of Chopin and Franz Liszt, but the later ones move into new territory, the last five being written with no key signature.

	Lia Tomás, Scriabin
		Scriabin was all of this at the same time, a personality that combined contradictions.
		Also with «Prometheus», Scriabin opens a new phase of his output and musical language, where basic concepts of traditional harmony such as the idea of tonality are replaced by preconceived harmonic nuclei that can generate the theme and unify the derivations of the chords in the composition.
		Scriabin's Prometheus cannot be simply narrated by the interpreter; as a mythical character it needs materiality to leave the realm of the composer's imagination and be established as reality.

		In searching for the common Scriabin builds up a system of color-tonal analogies: "The three clear to me colors gave me three bearings",- said he, confessing that the rest colors are derived by him "theoretically" [21, p.203].
		Nevertheless, accepting Scriabin's system of "colored hearing" (to be more accurate, the system of his analogies) as somewhat fixed, we proposed, for convenience sake, its graphic notation (see fig.1) [25].
		Rimsky-Korsakov proceeded from his personal positions and Scriabin - from his (perhaps, it was also of an importance that the former had the absolute pitch hearing and the latter, as it is known, - the relative) [28].

		Attatching great significance to the fact that he was born on Christmas Day (as observed by the Russian Orthodox Church), Scriabin dreamed of a union of all the arts "with philosophy and religion in an individual whole to form a new gospel," with himself as Messiah.

		His son, Julian Scriabin, showed budding promise as a composer before his tragic death at age 11.
