A minor

The theme is comprised of two intersecting motifs at the outset: a C-B-A-E sung in octaves and an ascending arpeggio. Initially, the descending octave motif appears, then from measure 11, it appears in an ascending form. The theme appearing in measure 23 serves as the climax of the piece. From measure 31, the theme's arpeggio is presented as a diminished seventh chord, after which the piece concludes with the crystalline sound of an A major chord, leading into the second movement.
