No. 8 in F-sharp minor, 3/4 time, Allegro agitato

Composed in Paris, the first destination of his second trip to Western Europe, when Scriabin was 24 years old. It was also in Paris that Scriabin gave his debut concert. The piece is based on a 2:3 polyrhythm. The melody is characterized by ascending motives with leaps exceeding an octave and descending motives in triplets.
