| Summary: | 碩士 === 臺北藝術大學 === 音樂學系碩士在職專班 === 98 === Not only is Franz Schubert (1797-1828) known for his Lieder, he also wrote highly acclaimed works for instruments. His excellent piano works span across various categories, ranging from sonatas and variations that take the classic form, to 19th-century piano character pieces. This study mainly discusses two independent piano variations from Schubert’s early period, namely the Ten Variations in F Major, D. 156 and Variations on a Theme of Anselm Hüttenbrenner, D. 576.
Each of the two piano variations has its own distinctive theme: while the Ten Variations in F Major, D. 156 features Schubert’s original theme, the Variations on a Theme of Anselm Hüttenbrenner, D. 576 was based on a borrowed melody. This study discusses the following topics: (1) The different approaches Schubert took to composing music on different themes; (2) The changes in structure---including the change in length--- among different variations; (3) The piano techniques Schubert used to demonstrate a specific variation or a music style; (4) The applications and significance of these two piano variations in teaching practice.
