Composed between 1830 and 1832.

The autograph manuscript (D/21) is housed in the Fryderyk Chopin Museum in Warsaw.

A-flat major, 12/8 time, Vivace assai

This work is designed for the proper execution of right-hand sixths and differing accents between the left and right hands. For the right hand, where single notes and double notes alternate, it is crucial not only to accurately grasp the double notes but also to be aware of the horizontal flow of the upper and inner voices. To play the left-hand arpeggios accurately and "legatissimo" as indicated at the beginning, flexibility in the wrist and elbow, as well as subtle pedal control, are indispensable.

The brilliant theme is first presented legato, then staccato from measure 13. After repeated modulations in the middle section, the opening theme returns from measure 54, leading to a brilliant conclusion.
