Although a scherzo movement in compound ternary form, contrary to convention, the first half of the scherzo proper is marked 'no repeat' (繰り返しなし). On the other hand, there is no 'no repeat (Senza replica)' indication for the da capo. The trio is remarkably short at 16 measures, and its first half has an extremely simple structure where the piano and violin largely conclude in parallel thirds over a dominant pedal point. Rather than focusing on elaborate form or harmony, it suggests that the main emphasis might be on the sonic contrast with the crisp scherzo proper.
