It is in a single-part form:

a (measures 1-9) + a1 (measures 10-21).

The tonality is E Aeolian mode, with E as the final. Unlike E minor, there is no D#, and the leading tone is not functioning, indicating the use of the Aeolian mode from church modes. This imbues the work with a folk-like nuance. The presence of open fifths creates a powerful impression.
