Misc. Notes The outer sections are from the Aria 'Begli occhi, mercè'. The score states the middle section (tonic major key) was composed by Franz Ries.
Tottmann-Altmann's Führer praises this highly: "Bei größter Einfachheit ein wunderbares Gesangstück-sonnig und wonnig." (Simplicity and lyricism join to make a sunny and happy mood.)
