"La donna e mobile" is probably the best known melody from Giuseppe Verdi’s opera "Rigoletto." In the song, the Duke of Mantua sings that women are fickle, changing their minds and affections like a feather in the wind. Here it is arranged for string quartet as part of my collection of famous Italian melodies.

It is also available in the key of Bb (having slightly easier double stops in the viola).
