Variations on a Rococo Theme, Op. 33 (Original version) [Alf:36-A839501]

This Mozart-inspired work, completed in January of 1877, was the first composition by Tchaikovsky for cello and orchestra. While for many the years, Variations on a Rococo Theme was only known in a version heavily edited by Wilhelm Fitzenhagen, to whom the work was dedicated, this edition by Paul Tobias and A. Stogorski is reconstructed to the original version. Instrumentation: Solo Cello: 2.2.2.2: 2.0.0.0: Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set).
