In 3/4 time. The same melody is repeatedly played in C major, G major, and C major. The challenge lies in how to express the elegant nuance of a minuet by maintaining small steps in the left-hand bass, without being pulled along by the right-hand melody. For the theme, it is crucial how to differentiate the three repetitions, not just by playing legato along with the musical flow, but also by devising various articulations.
