The main key is D minor. It is in binary form:

  • A [a (measures 1-8) + a1 (measures 9-16)]
  • B [b (measures 17-24) + b1 (measures 25-32)]

This piece is characterized by an impressive four-note motif consisting of an eighth-note triplet and a half note (or a quarter note). In section a1, the music descends through sequences, eventually cadencing in the relative major, F major. Section B is generally characterized by a chromatic ascending motion. Unlike A, it contains fewer detailed melodic elements.
