"A Formidable Achievement"



Maria Lettberg
plays Scriabin - Beethoven - Chopin - Liszt


One of the top Scriabin specialists in the world

"... a formidable achievement finely recorded." Bryce Morrison, Gramophone

"...total identification with Scriabin’s idiom deserve(s) nothing less than our highest rating." Jed Distler, ClassicsToday.com


Maria Lettberg is a Swedish pianist who lives in Berlin. She eschewed the traditional gladiatorial road to fame by competition and instead devoted herself to producing unique recordings. She is one of two people to have recorded the complete solo works of Alexander Scriabin



Her 8-CD boxed set was described by Gramaphone as 'a formidable achievement'. It is rated 4.5/5 on Amazon. Some of the review comments:
"...as close to a gold standard for this music that you're going to get."
"Her range and color is extraordinary!"
"Lettberg's interpretations are without peer"
 "...this wonderful pianist has come to release his (Scriabin's) full genius! All the voices are finally clear."
