Description

Mozart wrote paino variations throughout his career; the ealiest examples date from 1766, while the last work originated in 1791, the year of his death. On his concert tours Mozart drew storms of applause for his improvisations. His sets of variations were written in immediate response to these extempore performances, drawing mainly on the substance oft he theme and its painistic adornment.

This performing edition contains all of Mozart’s piano variations, including the surviving fragments. It consists of the definitive Urtext from the New Mozart Edition, a byword in absolute reliability and an indispensable basis for performances on the highest artistic level.
