Added by kheidtmann, 14 Dec 2017 Transposed from D to C major. For easier reading the note values were doubled. First performance on christmas 1818 by the poet (first part (tenor) and guitar) and the composer (second part, baritone) as a duet in D major with guitar accompaniment. River flooding had possibly damaged the church organ. Later on the melody was variously misattributed to Haydn, Mozart, or Beethoven.
