Review by JILL USSERY

Album Review: Sinfonie Nr. 3 C moll Op. 43 by Alexander Skrjabin Let’s cut to the chase—this album is a wild ride through soundscapes that feel like they’re straight out of some fever dream. Released in 1975 under Melodia Eterna, it’s got Jewgeni Swetlanow leading the Staatliches Sinfonie-Orchester Der UDSSR with all the drama and flair you’d expect from Soviet-era classical music. And yeah, this isn’t your grandma’s Mozart. It’s modern classical, full of twists, turns, and moments where you're just sitting there thinking, "What on earth did I just hear?" First off, let me talk about Track 1: Luttes (Lento - Allegro). Man, this one hits hard right outta the gate. The opening feels like walking into an old cathedral at midnight—dark, heavy, mysterious. But then BAM! That Allegro section kicks in, and suddenly it’s chaos. Not bad chaos though; more like organized madness. You can almost picture Skrjabin himself pacing around, muttering cryptic things while scribbling notes faster than his hand could keep up. There’s something raw and primal here, as if the orchestra's fighting its own inner demons. Honestly? This track sticks with me because it doesn’t play nice—it grabs you by the collar and demands attention. Then there’s Track 3: Jeu Divin (Allegro). If Luttes was the storm, this one’s the eye of the hurricane. Lighter, almost playful—but not in a cutesy way. More like… mischievous. Like when someone tells you a secret but winks afterward so you don’t know if they’re serious or messing with you. The strings dance around each other like sparks flying off a fire, and every now and then, the brass bursts in uninvited, making everything bigger, louder, bolder. By the end, my heart was racing—not sure if I wanted to laugh or cry. Probably both. And props to M.A. Wrubel for the cover art. That painting? Yeah, it fits perfectly. Dark, swirling colors that match the mood of the symphony down to the last brushstroke. Even the liner notes by Christof Rüger add a layer of intrigue—you get the sense people really cared about presenting this work as more than just another record. Here’s the thing: listening to this album feels like stepping into another world. A world where emotions run high, boundaries blur, and nothing makes total sense—but somehow, it still works. It’s messy, beautiful, exhausting, and completely unforgettable. Oh, and here’s a random thought to leave you with: why does classical music always make me want to write poetry? Seriously, who else gets that urge? Maybe Skrjabin cast a spell on us all.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s an interesting fact: The album *Sinfonie Nr. 3 C moll Op. 43* by Alexander Skrjabin is a hidden gem from the Cold War era. Released in 1975 in the German Democratic Republic (GDR), it was produced under the label Melodia Eterna. The cover art features a painting by M. A. Wrubel, adding a visual layer to Skrjabin’s intense and modern classical style. What makes it special? The conductor, Jewgeni Swetlanow, led the Staatliches Sinfonie-Orchester Der UDSSR with such passion that listeners can almost feel the political tension of the time melting into pure artistry. It’s like holding a piece of history—music, visuals, and all.

Скрябин великолепен! Дирижёр Светланов тоже! Это космическая музыка, великолепная музыка, Божественная музыка. Такой диапазон размаха може быть только у Бога, когда Он сотворял вселенную! Самая прекрасная русская музыка !Скрябин - Личность! Браво ему и всем исполнителям его музыки. Так и слышишь, как создаются и рушатся миры под рукой всемогущего Властелина!

Mystical, theosophical visionary to some; complete nutcase to others. Whatever the case, I do have a fondness for Scriabin's yearning, searching (arguably OTT) music which, after "The Divine Poem
