Minuet Section:

In this section, phrases progress in 4-bar units, and it is suggested that the instrumentation varies by phrase. The opening bars 1-4 are played by a relatively small number of instruments, while bars 5-8 are conceived as an ensemble with a larger number of instruments. The bass register also differs between the opening bars 1-4 and bars 9-12. For bars 9-12, imagine a smaller number of instruments, such as solo string instruments.

Trio Section:

This Trio section should be conceived precisely as a string quartet. For example, in bar 1 of the Trio, the left hand plays quarter notes, while the right hand plays eighth notes plus rests. The left hand's smooth motion evokes a cello, while the right hand's fine détaché playing suggests a light, ringing sound from a violin. This section progresses in 2-bar units; control the dynamics so that the tension is higher in the subsequent 2 bars than in the initial 2 bars, with the following 2 bars reaching a peak point.
