1. Elegantemente
2. Espressivo
3. Con Brio
It comprises of three movements. The middle movement, ESPRESSIVO, is framed by two movements which move along with a certain verve. The first is marked ELEGANTEMENTE while the finale is marked CON BRIO and, well into its progress, briefly quotes main ideas from the previous movements as a unifying element.
