A translation: "A sketch for an Andante in G major in 3/8 time...which has occasionally been mentioned in connection with the Second Symphony...cannot have been intended for op. 36, according to Sieghard Brandenburg, despite its "sinfonia" heading, since it was only written after the extended sketches to the second movement in Landsberg 12. It is improbable that Beethoven would have contemplated a new second movement at a time when the work had already progressed so far." Walter Meyer
