Formerly published by Schott as Edition 10845, the variations in this piece are based on an eight note tonal theme. The opening Theme is played by each instrument in turn, followed by 6 variations, each using a different interval of the scale, e.g. Seconds, Thirds, Fourths etc. The 7th variation is a short Fughetta, and the piece ends with a lively Finale in Calypso style.
