In D-flat major, 3/4 time, marked Allegro molto moderato. Among Fauré's Impromptus, it is a relatively large-scale work. It commences with thick, resonant chords. Subsequently, the rhythm becomes increasingly subdivided. Thereafter, a passage reminiscent of an organ follows. This section is occasionally interpolated even after transitioning to Meno mosso and music with a polyphonic texture. In this Impromptu, not only the overall scale of the work but also the expanded range encompassed by a single phrase is particularly striking.
