It is in C major and in ternary form: a (measures 1-4) + b (measures 5-8) + a (measures 9-12).

Although the dynamic marking begins with forte, from a harmonic perspective, the opening note in the bass (left hand) is the third of the chord (E), forming a first inversion, which creates an unstable sound. It is thought that the choice of the third instead of the root was intended to utilize this instability to create a lively expression that propels the music forward.

While this piece can be played without shifting hand positions, the sixteenth-note figure starting with the 5th finger, especially in the middle section b, presents challenges for finger control. Conversely, in section a, the scale-like passages of sixteenth notes at the beginning are prone to stumbling. In both cases, control of fingers 3, 4, and 5 is crucial, but since the figures differ, practice methods should be tailored to their specific characteristics.
