Composed in 1905. Based on the motif B-D♭-F-B-F, which was played at random by his piano student Halina Wolman, Čiurlionis composed the following three pieces:
1. No. 1
- A beautiful, poignant melody is played by the right hand, set against a bold octave accompaniment in the left hand. It should be performed with deep physical support. The approximate performance time is 1.5 minutes.
2. No. 2
- A tranquil, nocturne-like piece. It is characterized by harmonic developments reminiscent of Chopin. The approximate performance time is 2.5 minutes.
3. No. 3
- The melody exhibits bold octave movements, which are then played in canon form. It evokes Liszt's Dante Sonata. With a dizzying development of themes, it is played with a sense of urgency.
