After a series of opening chords, powerful rising scales alternate with a lyrical melody introduced by the oboe. The introduction fades away on a single repeated note, which soon articulates the jig-like rhythm that dominates the rest of the movement. Creating a pastoral atmosphere, the flute introduces a dancing theme based on this rhythm. In place of the usual contrasting second theme, the music continues to develop this main idea until reaching a grand pause.
The first time, the pause leads to a return of the dancing flute theme and all that followed it; the second time, the pause leads to an intense developmental passage. Suddenly, it comes to a halt; amid the half-light of woodwind solos, the movement then reaches its true climax before continuing with a varied reprise of its other main ideas.
Near the end, a grand pause once again stops the music; this time, a long crescendo ensues, leading to an ebullient conclusion. As more instruments enter, this idea grows in power, until the woodwinds introduce a more lyrical, contrasting theme softly accompanied by the main rhythm in the lower strings.
