A cadenza-coda preserves the rocking thirds through whirring trills and clattering arpeggios. |
The song was difficult to perform, with complicated pizzicato parts and arpeggios, requiring swift and flexible movements. |
The virtuoso tour de force begins with a flourish, the piano arpeggios answered by bold chords in the woodwind trio. |

At first, whirling scales and broken arpeggios scamper across the keyboard, hopefully tethered by tonic pedal notes in the bass. |
