Being an Allegro in 2/4 time, the piece could naturally be performed at a quite fast tempo. However, when considering the sixteenth-note triplets and trills comprehensively, the pressure created by an excessively fast tempo gives the listener an impression of "busyness."

The piece itself is very optimistic, witty, and enjoyable, so fast passages played at an extremely rapid tempo seem somewhat incongruous with its overall atmosphere.

For instance, in measure 16, a rest appears at the beginning of the first beat, followed by a rapid repetition of the same note in the left hand. The atmosphere changes dramatically between a performance where such repetitions are played loudly and quickly, and one where they are played lightly, elegantly, and slowly.

Please consider that the overall tension is not particularly high. While unexpected modulations and rhythmic interest should be brought out, the performance should emphasize elegance and enjoyment, rather than being overly technical or provocative.
