D major, 3/4 time, ben calmato. The performance duration is approximately 4 and a half minutes.

This is a late work, composed in 1911, concurrently with the suite Goyescas (1909-11).

Chords played to a leisurely dance rhythm sound like bells enveloping the atmosphere (pp). In the second theme, Danzas Españolas (Spanish Dances) is employed. Through tremolo sounds and the accumulation of left-hand chords, the music gradually increases in volume and tempo, moving towards a grand climax. It then regains tranquility, concluding the piece by fading away at the end.

Granados's own performance of this piece is preserved in a recording for player piano.
