Yes, it is a rondo. The first Da Capo is not an error. Its meaning is that after d16-+ cis(d8) the first theme has to be played.

We found it difficult to navigate this mvt. Is it a rondo? Or is the first da capo an error and needs deleting (our preference). It might be clearer of it was at the end of a bar rather than the beginning. Lovely music though. Bw Shaun
