Variations on a Theme by Brahms, 7 Short Waltzes Piano Solo - Digital Sheet Music

This set of variations is made up of 7 short waltzes I composed based on the theme of Brahms’ waltz in d, Op 39 #9. My waltzes can be played effectively at many different tempos, and I play them individually for different exercises in ballet class. For this publication I string them together as a short recital piece in the traditional variation set process by which each waltz is contrasted with the theme and with the other waltzes as to tempo, expression, and dynamics. It will be noticed that I give no tempo, expression or dynamic markings in my score. My own performance can be found in my album Variations and Adaptations for Ballet Class, Volume 3, Schumann and Brahms, but I welcome any pianists interested enough in this piece to play it to make their own decisions as to tempo, etc.
