The Theme itself is taken from a Divertimento by Haydn for wind instruments. For some unknown reason Haydn called the Divertimento the ‘Chorale St. Antoni."" The melody is simple enough, but as Brahms has proved, full of immense possibilities. One critic has said of it that it is " filled’ with a kind of intimate solemnity, as though it had been written for the golden wedding of some noble pair." 8.39 Aileen Young (soprano), Four Eighteenth Century Songs, "No Flower That Blows" Linley "T Have a Silent Sorrow " Georgina Duchess of Devonshire "Tell Me Lovely Shepherd " Boyce "Arise Sweet Messenger of Lee 8 os. ie erste 8.47 The Orchestra, conducted. by Willem Mengelberg, "Alcina Suite" ....
