1. Measures 1–16: The B-flat-major waltz begins with a held melody and grace-note response over alternating bass notes and chords. Rising and falling upper intervals broaden the phrase, followed by accented descending notes.
2. Measures 17–32: The melody returns in a higher register, with tied notes, another grace-note figure and rising intervals. A descending response leads to the tonic close marked Fim.
3. Measures 33–64: The three-flat section contrasts a chromatic upper turn with a quieter rising phrase. High accented notes and dotted rhythms expand the melody before a short eighth-note flourish brings the section to its repeated close.
4. Measures 65–80: The two-flat key signature returns with slurred eighth-note turns, lower melodic responses and a high chromatic phrase. The descending close leads to the printed D.C., returning to the opening section and its Fim marking.
