Beethovenâ
€™s “Diabelli
Variationsâ€,
written between 1819 and
1823, mark the pinnacle
of his oeuvre for
variations and next to
Bach’s
“Goldberg
Variations†form
one of the most important
contributions to this
genre. In addition to
Beethoven, 50 other
composers from Austria,
mainly Vienna, followed
Diabelli’s call to
create variations for his
famous waltz, among them
Czerny, Moscheles, Fr. X.
Mozart, Schubert, the
11-year-old Liszt and J.
N. Hummel.
The
variations first printed
by Diabelli fictively as
“Fatherlandish
Union of Artists Part
Iâ€
(Beethoven’s op.
120) and “Part
II†(the 50
variations of
Vienna’s
“most excellent
composers and
virtuososâ€) are
presented here by Mario
Aschauer for the first
time in one edition.
Furthermore the
variations of Part II
appear in an Urtext
edition for the first
time. The musical text is
based on a meticulous
study of the sources and
for the first time
relevant discrepancies
between the main sources
are presented in light
grey print.
A
detailed Critical
Commentary (Eng) and
notes regarding Viennese
piano performance
practice during
Beethoven’s day
complete this special
Urtext edition based on
the most current
research.
