A somewhat large-scale composition with an A-B-A-C-B-A-C-B-A structure. Section A is divided into a first half with a gentle melody and a second half characterized by parallel thirds and disjunct motion. In Section B, a humorous melody with a wide range is played by the left hand. Percussive dotted notes serve as accents. In Section C, three contrapuntal voices, each with a different rhythm, are intricately interwoven over a chordal accompaniment.

Dedicated to "Talya," Natalya Alekseevna Meshcherskaya, who was the sister of the dedicatee of No. 3.
