The work with an "aria" entitled Auf den Sieg der Deutschen, D. 81 (On the Victory of the German Armies), is given here not with piano, but accompanied by other instruments: for voice, two violins and cello. To an anonymous text, it refers to the famous Battle of the Nations at Leipzig in October 1813, in which the allied powers of Prussia, Austria and Russia overthrew Napoleon, so ending French domination of Europe. The soloist is Detlef Roth.
