Composed in 1819, the same year as the Rondo brillante, Op. 65, also known as "Invitation to the Dance." In the same year, it was published in Berlin and dedicated to Meyerbeer. This rondo, composed for performance in the salons of the Dresden court, is a work characteristic of Weber, renowned as an opera composer, and is brimming with his distinctive brilliant pianism. The overall structure takes the typical rondo form of "ABACABA." The main theme of the rondo is in E-flat major, marked Moderato e con grazia. In the "C" section, located in the middle of the piece, a contrast is created in E-flat minor, the parallel minor of the tonic key. Here, the main theme of the opening rondo is also developed. The piece concludes with a literally brilliant coda that lives up to its title.
