🇦🇹Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart ： 12 Variations on ‘La belle Françoise’ K.353

This work unfolds through 12 variations on the French song “La belle Françoise.” Building on its appealing melody, Mozart gradually varies the ornamentation, rhythms, register, and accompanying motion, creating a wide range of expression within the same theme. It is important to hear the differences between the variations while maintaining a clear sense of the overall progression. In performance, keep the principal melody distinct, clarify the roles of the right and left hands, and play light passagework with an even touch. Rather than exaggerating the contrasts, connect the variations with refined articulation and natural breathing, allowing both the charm of the theme and the individuality of each variation to emerge.
