In 4/4 time and D major. The frequent use of appoggiaturas and staccato evokes the movements of a leaping cricket. The stepwise motion (4 measures), succeeded by leaping motion (6 measures), imparts momentum to the piece.

While there are no particular points to note, a tempo of approximately 120 for the half note is desirable. If it is too slow, it may sound heavy.
From a technical standpoint, particular attention should be given to the left-hand scale from the third beat of measure 3 to measure 4. Although it is possible to use a fingering that avoids fingers 4 and 5, it might be beneficial to attempt the fingering 1-2-3-4-5-4-3. The method is as follows: first, practice A and G as a trill with 1-2-1-2, then G and F# with 2-3-2-3, F# and E with 3-4-3-4, and finally D and E with 4-5-4-5, each as a trill. Naturally, the 4-5-4-5 combination will likely be the most challenging.
Next, try practicing by oscillating between A, G, and F# with 3-2-1-2-3-2-1, then F#, E, and D with 4-3-2-3-4-3-2, and finally looping F#, E, and D with 5-4-3-4-5-4-3. Success is achieved if you can play with even articulation.
