Dean Sutcliffe's words) "a self-contained melodic episode in G minor, with the names of Sophie and Co[n]stanze Weber inscribed above a pair of prolonged sigh figures."[3] In a letter of 15 December, 1781, Mozart described Sophie as "good-natured but feather-brained."[4] In 1782, when Mozart and Constanze were married, she was the only Weber sister who was present at the ceremony.[2
