Music by 20th-century composers.
Szymanowski and Skrjabin.
Today in The Last Century, we go back to the turbulent 10s of the 20th century. It was a time where new paths were explored, politically, culturally, and musically.
This episode is dedicated to two composers who tried to give a similar musical expression to strong inner and sometimes ecstatic feelings; Alexander Skrjabin and Karol Szymanowski.
