Summary

[edit]
Description

Franz Schubert's Impromptu in B-flat: Variations IV, V, and VI. These movements have awkward breaks if not played continuously, the others extract quite a bit better.

This impromptu is a theme with variations. The main theme resembles a theme from the incidental music that Schubert composed for the play Rosamunde, which also appears in the second movement of his 13th string quartet.
