Brahms' famous Variations on a Theme by Haydn are based on the St. Anthony Chorale, brought to the attention of Brahms by his friend K.F. Pohl, archivist at the famed Gesellschaft der Musikfreunde in Vienna. This medium-advanced string orchestra arrangement includes the theme, select variations and the coda. Such a cheerful and joyful work will be a great addition to any concert program!
