Marked Gravement and Modéré et très-marqué in 3/8, the Espagnole begins with a full bar of lower-part accompaniment before paired-note figures enter above detached bass octaves in mm. 1–16. Short rests separate emphatic replies, and chromatic notes color the exchanges between piano and forte. In mm. 17–24, short flowing figures alternate between the upper and lower parts before a descending bass line leads back to the earlier accompaniment and chordal material in mm. 25–40, ending at fin. The Trio in mm. 41–56 sets a flowing upper melody over a continuous alternating sixteenth-note accompaniment, with crescendos and forte peaks. The lower figure reaches into the upper staff in mm. 57–64; mm. 65–72 raise the melody an octave and briefly place the left hand in treble clef. The earlier Trio phrase returns in the written register in mm. 73–88 before the Da Capo instruction to the waltz through fin.
