“Diabelli” Variations

Album by Ludwig van Beethoven & Stephen Kovacevich

Diabelli Variations is a set of variations for solo piano by Ludwig van Beethoven, composed between 1819 and 1823 and published in 1823. The work traverses a wide range of pianistic textures and harmonic reworking of its theme, from delicate lyricism to dense contrapuntal and virtuosic passages, and occupies a late-period position in Beethoven's oeuvre that illustrates his innovative approach to variation form.
