Ludwig van Beethoven
32 Variationen in c-moll WoO 80 - Scores - Germany G. Henle Verlag - 18 pages Musical Scores
32 Variations on an Original Theme in C minor, WoO 80 (German: 32 Variationen über ein eigenes Thema), is a solo piano work by Ludwig van Beethoven. It was composed in 1806. The work consists of an eight-bar main theme and 32 variations. A chord progression in the left hand, based upon a descending chromatic bass, serves as an important structural device. The short and sparsely melodic theme, as well as the emphasis on the bass line, reflect a possible influence of the chaconne and the Folia. The variations differ in character, technical difficulty and dynamics.
