Passar al fuoco i di quieti e contenti, Mentre la pioggia fuor bagna ben cento [To spend calm, contented days by the fireside while hundreds are soaked by the rain outside]

This Largo was originally composed for the violin in the key of E flat Major.

It is set in the key of G Major.

The cello part is appropriate for Grade 4 cellists.
