The form of this slow movement uses the same modified exposition-recapitulation form found in the slow movement of Schubert's "Great" C-major Symphony, where an ambiguity of formal definition is created by the introduction of a developmental passage shortly after the return of the primary theme in the recapitulation . The minuet quotes the melody of another song by Schubert, "Die Götter Griechenlandes", D. 677, from November 1819, a connection only first noticed more than a century after the work's composition by Willi . The opening of this melody recurs in inversion at the beginning of the trio, and is later echoed in the opening of the finale .
