Op. 249, No. 96 presents a folk melody in closely spaced upper intervals. Repeated quarter notes and short rising curves give it a restrained, steady character.

Measures 1–8 alternate repeated upper intervals with slurred arches. The accompaniment is spacious, and the cadence briefly opens into more independent lines.

Measures 9–16 restate the material at a stronger dynamic before returning to the softer opening level. The final phrase again thins out, ending with a short chord and silence.

Interesting fact: The source score identifies this setting as a “Russian Folk-song,” although the RTV title lists only its collection and number.
