The ambitious Poem of Ecstasy can be likened to a large sonata form. The first part spreads a great sheet of streaming music, a perpetual vibration of diffuse patterns and flashing timbres. "Pouring out streams of hope / Illuminated again / The spirit burns with the ardor of living". It begins with a kind of awakening, very impressionistic in its construction; then a scherzando-like passage gives free rein to a magic close to Rimsky-Korsako: "Brilliant reflections / of a magic light / illuminate the Universe".
Shortly thereafter, the only truly individualized motifs appear, a trumpet call, with a conquering profile, and the sighs of the solo violin: it sounds like two faces of desire, the one that undertakes and the one that longs. But it is especially the trumpet leitmotiv that will be reiterated throughout the work, like a "consciousness of the self" crossing the cosmic quivering: "the Spirit that plays, the Spirit that desires, the all-powerful Spirit, creating while dreaming...".
Suddenly, the electricity of the storms comes to disturb this spiritual blossoming: " Threatening rhythms and dark presentiments / Brutally invade this charming world / [...] Mouths of frightful monsters open up ". The tightening of the motives, which resembles a development, the darkness of the brass, the deliberate confusion recall many passages of Richard Strauss; the glockenspiel maintains its mystical notes in this fracas, "The lightning of the divine will criss-crosses the sky. A sort of recapitulation brings back the initial flutter, the allegro volando, another battle and the affirmation of the trumpet motif.
Towards the end, this main motif, transfigured, "bursts" into a monstrous chime. The coda, which repeats the motif with a moving melodic breadth, manages to make the final C major chord sound like the most phenomenal event ever.
