This is the piano accompaniment track of the Italian art song "Dormendo stai" for low voice. It is written in the key of B flat Major with a vocal range of Bb3-F5 and includes a starting pitch and the first three notes of the vocal melody since the vocalist has 3 eighth note pickups into the first full measure. Donaudy's fame as a composer comes exclusively from his "36 Arie di Stile Antico," a collection to which this piece belongs. It was first published in 1918. Performed by Wendy Hellmann.
