1. Opening pickup and measures 1–9: Small paired-note gestures introduce an E-flat-major polonaise. Running melodic figures and high-register replies sit above the characteristic bass-and-chord rhythm. The first and second endings give different cadential lengths.
2. Measures 10–25: Scherzando and leggiero phrases in the two-flat section feature grace notes, triplets and light upper responses. Più animato passages add chordal weight, inner-voice exchanges and longer runs before a sustained cadence.
3. Measures 26–35: A low-register scalar transition rises into an opening-related return in E-flat major. Chordal additions and octave shifts color the reprise, which ends at the short cadence marked Fine.
4. Transition pickup and measures 36–37: An ad libitum descending run leads to emphatic energico chords and a fermata.
5. Measures 38–53: The A-flat-major Con espressione section unfolds a more sustained melody over the polonaise pulse. Chromatic figures, triplets and sequential responses lead to a rising run and high-register cadence. Da Capo al Fine returns to the opening and closes at measure 35.
