Measures 1–10 establish a rocking 6/8 accompaniment, followed by a melody in paired notes with small grace notes and short staccato figures.

Measures 11–17 alternate moving double notes above a held lower tone with a moving inner figure beneath sustained upper harmony. The repeated exchanges end over a rolled bass interval.

Measures 18–30 introduce quick rising and falling runs, brief ornaments and mid-register chordal answers. The hands join in a parallel staccato scale in measure 27, then the music pauses on held intervals and isolated bass notes.

Measures 31–45 return to the opening melody with additional decoration. Chromatic runs and a short trill lead back to the held-note texture, which briefly thickens into fuller chords before another rolled-bass cadence.

Measures 46–62 renew the ornamental runs. A short moving line appears within the left hand, after which detached chords alternate with the last ascending and descending figures. A long chord and short low-register punctuation bring the piece to a close.

The linked performance contains Barcarolles Nos. 2 and 10.
