This A-major Andantino sets a calm quarter-note melody over a continuously shifting eighth-note accompaniment. Its middle section gives the upper voice a more animated role before the opening returns.
Measures 1–8 introduce rising and falling melodic arches, with a short chromatic turn at the end of the first phrase. The lower line alternates widely spaced notes and briefly pauses at the cadences.
Measures 9–16 increase the melodic activity. Eighth-note figures move into the upper voice, stronger dynamics broaden the phrase, and chromatic notes lead back toward the opening.
Measures 17–24 recall the initial melody and accompaniment. The final phrase descends into a compact cadence followed by a shared rest.
Interesting fact: In the middle section, the hands briefly exchange rhythmic roles: the melody moves in eighth notes while the accompaniment slows to quarter notes.
