The two poèmes signify a landmark in the composer's stylistic idiom. Starting from op. 57,
Scriabin abandons the obligatory tonal chord at the end of the piece and seems to accepts
a dissonant harmony as an endpoint which does not require resolution. He also drops the key
signature in scores (i.e. adopts the "nominal C major") while the tonal foundations of his
pieces become rather uncertain.
The poèmes share a dreamy, serene character. The first one, still close to being in C major,
suggests a state of somewhat somber rumination or remembrance which suddenly bursts into an
