Theme: A major, 2/4 time, Andantino. A lovely, pastoral melody is presented.

Variation I: A major, 2/4 time. The left hand sings the theme's melody sonorously, while the right hand beautifully embellishes the theme with wide-leaping sixteenth notes, rapid thirty-second notes, and trills.

Variation II: A major, 2/4 time, piu mosso. This is a variation featuring triplet passages. Beyond merely playing fast with the fingers, pay attention to the harmony, the lively character of the triplets, and the sound and balance when both the right and left hands play triplets.

Variation III: A major, 2/4 time, Allegretto. This is an interesting rhythmic variation with accents on the off-beat of the second beat. Although the theme is played in octaves, play with a sense of horizontal flow to prevent the melody from becoming fragmented. It is advisable to keep the thumb relaxed and use the wrist with an up-and-down motion.

Variation IV: A minor, 2/4 time, Lento. This is a variation in the parallel minor. Play tragically, as if pleading. It is polyphonic, with each voice chasing the theme's melody. It would be good to make the theme stand out and play it three-dimensionally.

Variation V: A minor, 3/4 time, non troppo vivo. Remaining in the dark A minor, the time signature changes to 3/4. This variation features rapid descending thirty-second notes and chords. It is a somewhat folk-like, rhythmic piece. Though light, advance the music while firmly articulating the constantly shifting harmonies. The appoggiaturas should also be played comically.

Variation VI: D minor, 2/4 time, in tempo. The key modulates to the subdominant of A minor. This variation is reminiscent of a funeral march, with an impressive quiet bass in the low register struck on the second beat.

Finale: A major, 2/4 time, Allegro molto vivace. The right hand plays brilliant sixteenth-note passages, while the left hand simply supports the theme's harmonies. Various motifs appear, including sections with rapid alternating chords, unison sixteenth notes, and chromatic scales, culminating in a rapid ascent of an A major scale, concluding brilliantly with a III-V7-I progression.
