The form is a rondo, structured as A-B-A-C-A. It should be considered a gavotte in rondo form, rather than a gavotte and a rondo.
This gavotte can be interpreted not as a vibrant and light gavotte, but rather one that incorporates romantic elements, conveying a sense of melancholy and pathos. Naturally, it is also possible to perform it with metronomic rhythmic precision, lightly, and staccato, and this approach is not to be dismissed.
However, even when playing the B-flat major (relative major) of the B section, it still evokes a certain melancholy, and returning immediately to G minor gives a sensation of being drawn back to reality. One interpretive approach involves playing with greater metronomic adherence, precisely and lightly, while another suggests employing more pedal for an improvisational, romantic rendition. The author, if performing, would likely opt for the latter.
No distinct peak points exist within this piece; a melancholic and somewhat empty atmosphere pervades, suggesting that significant dynamic fluctuations may not be essential. Nevertheless, the performer should prioritize and express their own interpretive sensibilities.
