A-flat major, 12/8 time, Andante, ternary form. Antoni Stolpe is regarded as one of the most distinguished composers and pianists in Poland after Chopin. The wave-like arpeggiated accompaniment figure, played over two measures, is reminiscent of the opening of Chopin's Andante spianato et Grande Polonaise brillante. In the middle section, the music modulates to the dominant key of E-flat major, transitioning to a youthful and bright character. The theme, recapitulated in A-flat major, is sung with a brilliant, ornamented melody, also closely resembling Chopin's technique, bringing the music to its climax. This is a beautiful nocturne that emphasizes the balance between accompaniment and melody, and the delicate weaving of sounds.
