F major, 3/4 time.

This is a vibrant piece that opens with fanfare-like ascending arpeggios. It consists of three exposition sections; the first and third expositions feature a canon where the lower voice follows the upper voice one measure later.

The second exposition (from m. 12) opens with the upper voice imitating the C major theme presented by the lower voice, but instead of continuing as a canon, it modulates repeatedly, starting in G minor and utilizing previously introduced motives.

From the third exposition (from m. 26), it becomes a canon again, but the recapitulation of the theme's opening is omitted, corresponding to measures 4-12.
