In F major, 4/4 time. Marked "in folk style" at the beginning, it progresses with four-part harmony. The "G" in the subtitle refers to the Danish musician Niels Gade. The spelling "GADE" is reinterpreted as musical notes, developing the theme from G-A-D-E. Gade was a friend of Schumann and served as a professor at the Leipzig Conservatory and conductor of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra.
