Detailed Information
Presto in F, Biamonti 238 (1800) This short fragment of a Presto in 6/8 time was no doubt intended for some part of op. 43, the ballet The Creatures of Prometheus, since it is in a long stretch of Landsberg 7 that is devoted entirely to work on that composition. However, it remains unclear the movement to which this belongs. It has a roisterous character that would not be out of place in a tavern scene, but none such occurs in the synopsis of the ballet.
