Form and Analysis

K-42 is a four-bar piece consisting of chromatically alternating major triads in the strings and woodwinds, beginning on D♭ major and ending on A˚7, though the spelling of the tonality depends on context, which varies. (See K-8.) It can be used to transition to the dominant tonality of this arc, F Minor, and often is.
