Complete Piano Sonatas [Paperback] Review

This edition of Scriabin's piano sonatas is another bargain from Dover, with clear print and sturdy binding.Their source is a reprint of a Russian edition, published in Moscow (1964), and not editions that date back to the composer.I mention this because there seems to be a misprint in the "Funebre" movement of Sonata No. 1: compare m. 5 on page 23 with the third measure from the end on page 24 -- the passages are otherwise identical, but the left hand on the third beat is different (although harmonically acceptable).One is likely incorrect.That said, Ashkenazy and Laredo play it as written, so who knows?Finally, to the reviewer who wondered if the Sonata No. 1 is complete -- it is.The "missing" movement from the Contents page (the "Funebre" mentioned above) begins on page 23.It's all there.
