Mendelssohn Variations Serieuses Op 54

In contrast to the numerous flashy "variations brilliantes" of the time, Mendelssohn composed his Variations sÈrieuses (Serious Variations) during the summer of 1841. These variations are considered to be among Mendelssohn's greatest works for solo piano. This edition contains background information, performance suggestions for each variation, editorial fingering, and both original and editorial pedal indications. A Federation Festivals 2020-2024 selection.
