avec une volupte radieuse

French composer

Definition

With radiant ecstasy — Scriabin's characteristic late-period instruction for mystical, transcendent passages.

Interpretive Guidance

Scriabin's late music is saturated with mystical ecstasy. These passages should feel as if they are dissolving into pure light; the sound must float, and the harmonies must shimmer rather than resolve.
