Measures 1–12 establish a compact rhythmic idea of two sixteenth notes followed by an eighth note, answered by repeated notes and imitative fragments that pass between registers. After the first cadence at measures 11–12, the material expands through continuous broken-note patterns, chordal exchanges, and sharply accented figures. At measures 54–55, a descending four-octave sequence briefly suggests the sound of bells. The opening material returns in altered form before a coda gathers the fragmented motives into broader, more forceful lines and closes with sustained B-minor chords.
