C major, 4/4 time. The opening two measures begin with a dissonant introduction. From measure 3, the main melody appears in the right hand, with note values becoming finer in measure 5. From measure 7, the piece undergoes repeated modulations. From measure 13, the right hand plays a cantabile melody, but it quickly transitions to the main melody. Finally, the chords from the introductory section reappear, bringing the piece to a close.
