Musician's or Publisher's Notes

Beethoven composed three sets of variations for cello and piano during his first decade in Vienna. The last two sets of variations were based on themes from Mozart’s Singspiel, Die Zauberflöte (“The Magic Flute”). In 1801 he composed a set of variations based on the duet between Pamina and Papageno, “Bei Männern, welche Liebe fühlen” (“Among Men Who Know the Feeling of Love”).       Notes by Todd E. Sullivan
