A four-measure unaccompanied introduction leads into Lola Polka’s G-major dance theme in mm. 5–12, where short slurred figures and grace notes sit above alternating bass notes and chords. Measures 13–24 broaden the melody into running figures and paired notes before a G-major cadence. At m. 25 the music turns to C major; the contrasting material in mm. 25–36 mixes lighter single-note figures with chordal responses. Measures 37–56 expand the upper register and alternate ornamental double notes with flowing runs, before the printed D.C. directs a return to the opening.
