Unser dummer Pöbel meint K. 455

The humorous, satirical character of Mozart’s Variations K 455 on a simple theme of Gluck’s opera “Die Pilgrime von Mekka”, spontaneously conceived while improvising during a concert in 1783, highlights the cumbersomeness of the theme with playful wit and technical brilliance. A musical delight for advanced pianists and an ideal concert piece! The Bärenreiter Urtext edition is based on the authoritative musical text of the New Mozart Edition.
