In A major and 3/4 time, marked Allegretto moderato. The melody is sung by both hands, as if passing it back and forth. The sonority is delicate. The opening section is followed by a Più allegro section in F major, after which the opening section reappears. The occasional insertion of octave passages is also noteworthy. In the concluding section, the dynamics rapidly shift from pianissimo to fortissimo within a short span, and the piece concludes with repeated tonic notes.
