Work & Edition Details
Variations and Fugue on a Theme by George Frideric Handel (Op. 24) for piano solo, edited by Carl Seemann and with musicological revision by Kurt Stephenson. Composed in 1861 and dedicated to Clara Schumann on her birthday, the 25 variations are based on Handel's 'Aria con Variazioni' from the Suite No. 1 in B flat major in his second collection of harpsichord suites (1733). The choice of theme reflects Brahms' love of baroque music, and the variations pay homage to many Baroque stylistic features, culminating in a magnificent fugue at the end.
Variationen und Fuge über ein Thema von Georg Friedrich Händel für Klavier op. 24, herausgegeben von Carl Seemann und mit musikwissenschaftlicher Revision von Kurt Stephenson. Die 1861 komponierten und Clara Schumann zu ihrem Geburtstag gewidmeten 25 Variationen basieren auf Händels „Aria con Variazioni“ aus der Suite Nr. 1 in B-Dur in seiner zweiten Sammlung von Suites de pièces pour le clavecin (1733). Die Wahl des Themas spiegelt Brahms' Liebe zur Barockmusik wider. Die Variationen sind eine Hommage an viele barocke Stilmerkmale und gipfeln in einer prächtigen Fuge am Ende.
