Hold everything!

A wrote asking about a work whose name I remembered as

Derek Lim  replied:

I remember the tune now! It goes like this (not necessarily in D,
actually):

(A G) | (F# A) (D ^F#) (E D) | (C# E) (G B) (A G) | (F# A) (D C#) (D
\B) | A - - (A# B A) ...

I'm so hopelessly confused about these things, this might be a completely
different tune than the minuet in D that I remember the name of!  Anyway,
thanks to Derek, and thanks in advance to anyone who can name this tune.
I believe it is by Mozart.
