The piece begins with an arpeggiated paino (alla harp) and then joined by tutti flutes. The theme is stated in the fashion unilt it breaks into a flute trio harmonization, with more vigor. The piece gravitates to a new key where any of the parts can serve as the soloist. The final section is stronger and again uses the benefit of the flute trio harmonies. It progresses to a gentle and quiet repose as if in a pastorale setting.
