It is uncertain whether this piece is a pictorial or psychological depiction; however, please consider it a light and gentle work, rather than a rigid one. This piece is fundamentally composed of two distinct materials.

• One is a rotating figuration. This is the chromatic movement G-A♭-A-A♭-G in measure 1. It appears in measures 1, 2, 5, 6, 14, 15, and 17.
• The other is the lyrical section. It appears in measures 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 16.

Clearly articulating the contrast between these two materials will further enhance the piece's appeal. That is, the chromatic movements should be played swiftly, lightly, and quickly, while the lyrical sections should be performed relatively broadly, with a slight lingering quality, as if singing them out. Of course, an extreme difference in tempo between the two materials would be awkward; therefore, set a single tempo and find freedom of movement within it. Consequently, it is desirable for the piece itself to be performed freely and improvisationally, rather than with a metronomic strictness.
