A minor, 2/4 time. A folk-like and sprightly melody is performed. The music is structured around two-bar phrases, consisting of sixteenth notes and eighth notes. In this piece, particular attention to articulation is recommended. The staccato eighth notes in the right hand should be played lightly, while the tenuto quarter notes should avoid becoming overly heavy. From bar 8, the left-hand tenuto should be performed with careful balance to prevent it from sounding too ponderous. The piece concludes quietly with a rallentando.
