Scriabin's music feeds off a mystical and theosophical conception of the musical act, intimately linked to a correlation between sonic space, light and color. While it is in piano music that the composer reaches the highest levels of abstraction, the five symphonic works that complete his oeuvre are foundational monuments of modern symphonic language.
The Poem of Ecstasy is a song of praise to liberated action and energy, to the cosmos, to the spirit, and to eternal creation, to consciousness and to ecstatic time.
