Between this scherzo and the finale stands an intermezzo (allegretto grazioso). The melody is played by the first violin, which, along with the second violin and viola, is muted while the ’cello plays a pizzicato counterpoint. This is a graceful and pleasing movement, and if less characteristic than the others, it affords a well-calculated change of effect. The last movement (allegro risoluto) begins with a bold passage in A minor (No. 1), joined a little later on to a contrasted phrase (No. 2), of which much is subsequently made.
