In 1970 Laredo made her famous premiere recordings of Scriabin's 10 sonatas on three LPs for "Connoisseur Society" (reissued in 1984 by Nonesuch Records on a three-LP box and in 1996 on a double CD). She made the recordings in St. Paul's Chapel at Columbia University, New York City, on a Baldwin SD-10 grand piano. The Scriabin LPs were released in a period where little of Scriabin's music was available, and Laredo's recordings led to his rising popularity in the USA. "I was kind of a crusader for his music," said Laredo.
