Best edition
In my view, this is the best edition of these gems. It has outstanding and innovative fingerings, which sometimes are crucial to master these works. Scriabin had a tendency to write passages that are spread out over the keyboard. Frequent redistributions are necessary to master it. This editor gives you options you wont find anywhere else, and many are ingenious. The paper is wonderful and I think you wont be disappointed. The only negative aspect is that the very first Etude, Opus 2, No. 1 in C-sharp minor, is not included. Otherwise its the complete etudes. They range from the early masterpieces of Opus 8, which are modeled on Chopin, to the more dissonant and harmonically advanced Opuses 42 and 65. You have to have massive hands to play the first one in the last Opus. Few can handle the chromatic ninths.
