Étude in encore of Vladimir Horowitz.
Technique
The dramatic motive and moving recitative of the solo in the upper voices on the chordal background is characteristic of Scriabin's early creations.[2][unreliable source?] The typical tempo for the piece is around 100-112 beats per minute. The right hand is always playing octaves except for the piece's ending. Similarly, the left hand is continually jumping around until the final chord is struck.
