First published: 2026-09-15T18:00:26+00:00. Completeness: unknown.Measures 1–16 establish a quick 3/8 pattern: a low arpeggiated bass answers a recurring, rising chromatic turn and accented high notes. Measures 17–36 break the turn into shorter upper fragments, then expand it into higher, more continuous runs above the same moving bass. The line slows and settles on held notes.Measures 37–52 bring back the opening arpeggio and high accent, building to fuller chords and a descending close.Measures 53–68 give the bass a flowing line beneath spare upper replies; repeated short chords and a stronger high-register figure follow.Measures 69–80 grow more chromatic and densely beamed, before quieter slurred notes and a softer cadence. Measures 81–95 restore the opening turn and arpeggiated bass for the final emphatic ending.
