This was part of our Mystery Pianist quiz. Margulis studied with his father (whose teacher, Alexander Horowitz, had studied with Scriabin). Later in Leningrad he studied with Samary Savshinsky, who also taught Lazar Berman, Moisei Halfin (Sokolov's teacher), Mark Taimanov, Lyubov Bruk and Sergei Slonimsky. Margulis went on to teach in Leningrad, Germany and the US. He also published a lot of written work. His son Jura Margulis is a well-known pianist. This recording of Scriabin's sonata 5 was released in 1977. All of Margulis's commercial recordings can be heard on his website - [ Ссылка ]
