- Mm. 1-4 : Phrase A-1, going from the main key of D Major to the dominant key of A Major
- Mm. 5-8 : Phrase A-2, starting exactly as A-1 but remaining in D Major
- Mm. 9-12 : Phrase B-1 in A Major
- Mm. 13-16 : Phrase B-2, starting exactly as B-1 but modulating back to D Major
- Mm. 17-20 : Phrase A-1 repeated exactly as in mm. 1-4
- Mm. 21-end : Phrase A-2 repeated exactly as in mm. 5-8
The violinist should be careful to keep the left hand relaxed and quiet, with the fingers very close to the string at all times.
In particular, the little finger should remain above the strings throughout the study.
