Hi there, COSMICAC. On Jun 25, you wrote:

=> ... who in the name of KATE is Scriabin?  ...

Alexander Scriabin: late 19th/early 20th century composer & pianist. Two 
contributions of note were envisioning kinesthetic composition that included 
colors & smells (`Prometheus' is for orchestra and color organ), and basing 
a lot of his harmonic constructions on fourths. IMO good technician, some
interesting ideas, but it's still basically late romantic music.
