Second movement from Piano Sonata No. 1 in C Major . The second movement is a theme and variations inspired by the song Verstohlen geht der Mond auf. Brahms was to rewrite it for female chorus in 1859 (WoO 38/20). Verstohlen geht der Mond auf. Blau, blau Blümelein! Durch Silberwölkchen führt sein Lauf. Blau, blau Blümelein! Rosen im Tal, Mädel im Saal, O schönste Rosa! Stealthily rises the moon. Blue, blue flower! Through silver cloudlets makes its way. Blue, blue flower! Roses in the dale, Maiden in the hall, O handsomest Rosa!
