Siciliana pairs a graceful, gently swaying A-minor melody with a brighter, more flowing contrast. Its main tune combines short rising figures, sustained notes, and a quiet chordal accompaniment.
The opening 6/8 sections repeat and vary the tune, briefly growing stronger at their cadences. A contrasting section changes to 2/4 and introduces continuous sixteenth-note curves above a steady chordal pulse. The written return brings back the opening music to complete the piece.
Interesting fact: the contrast involves an actual change of meter from 6/8 to 2/4, giving the later passage a different rhythmic shape before the original sway returns.
