#WednesdayWagner There are a lot of issues that make so difficult a proper analysis. Since we seem to be in A minor, 1st bar is a kind of I (note that harmony is undefined) and 3rd bar is a V7 with an appoggiatura. The problem is the 2nd bar!

#WednesdayWagner If we look carefully the pitches of 2nd bar and we order them by thirds, we have this chord: minor chord on G# with diminished 7th (F natural). Note that this is NOT a diatonic chord belonging to any key
