Term: Variations

Definition: variation form involves the repetition

of a theme in changed versions. it is possible to vary the melody, its rhythm and its harmony, or to vary by addition. early variation forms include the chaconne and the passacaglia, originally dances based on variations on a simple repeated bass or chordal pattern. Later examples of variations include Elgar's well known enigma variations and the Handel, Haydn and Paganini variations of Brahms


Music Word of the Day

Every day I make an attempt to add a little bit more music and art knowledge to the Internet, one word at a time. Realizing there aren’t many comprehensive and complete online music and art dictionaries, I set out on a mission to compile my own.
