MOZART Wolfgang Amadeus (1756-1791). MANUSCRIT MUSICAL autograph, Scena con Rondò for Le Nozze di Figaro, [1786]; 4 oblong pages in-4 of a double-page spread (22,3 x 31 cm). Exceptional manuscript of the first version of a scene for the last act of Le Nozze di Figaro. On the four pages of a 12-line bifeuillet of paper (Tyson Wasserzeichen no. 82), in brown ink, under the title Scena con Rondò, Mozart composed the primitive version of the recitative and the aria for Susanna in scene 10 (K.492, no. 27) of Act IV and last, in the garden. Mozart had conceived this scene of Susanna as an accompanied recitative, followed by a Rondo in two parts, but finally rejected the rondo in favour of the magnificent aria "Deh vieni, non tardar" . The complete accompanied recitative (34 bars), which will be heavily modified and shortened in the final version, occupies the first three pages, noted on two systems of 5 staves per page, where the vocal part of Susanna and the bass are written out in full, as well as the first violin part : "Giunse il momento alfine che godrò senz'affanno in braccio a l'idol mio: Timide cure, partite dal mio petto, a turbar non venite il mio diletto. Oh come in questo istante tutto ad amor risponde! l'aura che tra le fronde dolce sospira, il cielo che del placido velo della notte copre l'amato amante, e i furti miei, e nel suo grato orrore a trasporti di gioia invita il core". At the bottom of the third page, Mozart writes: "Segue Rondò". This Rondo begins on the 4th page, prepared with a system of 10 staves; we have the first 7 bars of the vocal part of Susanna's aria, with the bass (the other parts have remained blank), and the words: " Non tardar amato bene vieni vola al seno moi, à
