MAZURKA’S BY CHOPIN AND SKRJABIN 

The Russian composer Alexander Skrjabin wrote very personal and innovative music. However his early works are clearly influenced by Chopin, although already in this first stage of his creative life his music is more extreme than that of his Polish colleague.  Chopin as well as Skrjabin composed a considerable number of Mazurka’s and in this program you can hear a selection from this part of their oeuvre. In this way we can hear the similarities as well as the differences in style of these composers who have been so extremely important for the pianorepertoire.
