3/4 time, B minor. The left-hand accompaniment pattern, composed of a bass note (1 beat) plus a chord (2 beats), marks the rhythm of a 3/4 waltz. In the right hand, a dotted rhythm is consistently placed at the beginning of the measure, and a light melody is played.

In this piece, use the pedal to ensure a smooth, unbroken accompaniment. As "cantabile" is indicated at the beginning, the melody line should be clearly articulated for all to hear.

Since the cadences in measure 7 and measure 15 differ in character, they require distinct performance approaches.

Measure 25 features a key change characteristic of Schubert. Alter the tone color accordingly.

Measure 31 presents the same melody as measure 7, but it is written in a major key with an added sixth. This passage, involving the added sixth, is a crucial test of the performer's skill. To the extent possible, suppress the inner voices in the right hand.
