About the Scriabin Club
What We Do
At the Scriabin Club, we strive to enlighten the world with the art and ideas of Alexander Scriabin. Our mission is to connect Scriabin enthusiasts worldwide and foster a vibrant community. Through monthly meetings, recordings, concerts, and innovative projects, we promote Scriabin’s music and explore ways to apply his visionary ideas.
The Scriabin Club aims to be the go-to platform for all things Scriabin-related, including encouraging and supporting research about his life, music, and philosophy.
Regular Scriabin Club Meetings
We organize monthly meetings (see our Join page for details) that are exclusive to members and provide a space for connection, creativity, and collaboration.
Salon Concerts
We are reimagining the tradition of salon concerts for the 21st century, hosting performances both offline and online.
Salon performances take place in intimate settings, such as living rooms, where audiences can enjoy music while forming a direct connection with the performer. These concerts are as much about fostering social connections as they are about experiencing music.
Salon concerts also serve as a platform for practical workshops, such as performances with color accompaniment—an idea originally envisioned by Alexander Scriabin.
For our online community, we host live-streamed salon concerts where audiences are encouraged to participate in post-performance discussions.

Theoretical Research Meets Practical Applications
The Scriabin Club website is a hub for Scriabin-related publications, encouraging research projects that have a practical impact.
For instance, we explore how Scriabin’s synesthetic ideas can be applied to music education and creativity. This research highlights the practical benefits of Scriabin’s visionary work for educators, musicians, and art enthusiasts alike.
