"Snowy Fields" is a cheerful orchestrated theme in C major and 4/4. It begins with a triumphant intro, which uses a variant of the "[[Flower Fields (theme)|Flower Fields]]" melody, featuring a trumpet, sleigh bells, and harp glissandi; the latter two become recurring elements of the piece. Transitioning to the main melody is a characteristic wintery sequence of descending thirds and fourths. The violin melody is simple, switching from a high A to G and low G to A, thus forming plagal cadences, and then ending in a perfect cadence. This plays twice. The same functions continue in the lyrical second E-flat major section with a less spread out melody. Nearing its end, it slowly builds up, and the first section is reprised in G-flat/F-sharp major. Building up again with a flute trill, a grandiose modulation occurrs. The soulful new A major section moves up triads in first inversion three times, leading to the bright harmonies of F-sharp minor before returning with the addition of bells and repeating, reaching new heights the second time. After ending on a warm A major chord, the harmonies switch to F major, the subdominant back to C, and the track loops.

The same functions continue in the lyrical second E-flat major section with a less spread out melody. Nearing its end, it slowly builds up, and the first section is reprised in G-flat/F-sharp major. Building up again with a flute trill and chords similar to the transitions of "[[Dusk Dunes (theme)|Dusk Dunes]]", a grandiose modulation occurrs. The soulful new A major section moves up triads in first inversion three times, leading to the bright harmonies of F-sharp minor before returning with the addition of bells and repeating, reaching new heights the second time.
