Measures 1–4: Brief rising flourishes alternate with a low, expressive phrase over softly repeated bass notes. The opening is marked Adagio, sempre rubato.
Measures 5–14: A broad upper line unfolds over moving inner parts and a more regular bass figure. After a short flourish, meno mosso introduces a marked melody against detached accompaniment.
Measures 15–28: High chordal gestures, chromatic lines and quieter responses move through changing registers. Rubato molto brings dotted figures and ornamental runs; brief ppp passages interrupt the fuller texture.
Measures 29–37: In tempo andante introduces a flowing upper line above evenly articulated lower notes and a separately phrased melodic layer. Detached high notes and chromatic exchanges lead into a quiet transition.
Measures 38–49: Come prima recalls the broad earlier melody, followed by rising phrases, simultaneous chords and softer answers. The texture thins into held notes and short exchanges.
Measures 50–55: A fuller chromatic phrase subsides into a return of the opening flourishes and low melody. The final upward figure fades to ppp.
