album release: Scriabin 3
Le Divin Poème: brand new album by Brussels Philharmonic & Kazushi Ono out on April 4
Scriabin & Brussels Philharmonic
Alexander Scriabin (1872-1915) holds a special place in the repertoire of Brussels Philharmonic. Together with music director Kazushi Ono, we are building a long-term artistic trajectory—on stage and in the studio. With the Second, Third and Fifth Symphonies behind us, and the Fourth planned for the 2026–2027 season, our dialogue with his visionary universe continues to deepen: mystical, ecstatic, and always reaching for what escapes words.
Along this journey, we continue to open up new perspectives. Through visual interpretations, features, news updates and curated reading lists, we allow Scriabin’s music to resonate even further. Explore our collection here.
Scriabin: Le Divin Poème | programme notes
In his three symphonies, Scriabin brought his personal, radical vision ever more intensively to the fore. The finale of his Third Symphony, also known as ‘Le Poème Divin’ (the divine poem), marked an important point in his development as a composer: "This was the first time I found light in music [...] the first time that I felt a stir, a liberation, knew the breathlessness of happiness".

Stravinsky & Scriabin | Programme Notes
“Is it possible to link a composer like Scriabin to any tradition at all?” That is what Stravinsky also wondered, so unique was his musical language. Scriabin initially wrote mainly for the piano. Only later did he put his hand to larger orchestral works, including five symphonies that he wrote between 1899 and 1910.
