Schubert, F - Variations on the song 'Trockne Blumen' D 802 Op. post. 160(Wiener Urtext *Ries & Erler Berlin Away In A MangerDescription: In January 1824 Schubert himself called the work succinctly Variations pour Pianoforte et Flte". Judging from the first edition (Introduction et Variations sur un thme original", published posthumously in 1850), it doesn't seem as if Schubert borrowed the variation theme from the song Trockne Blumen" from his cycle Die schne Mllerin". The addressee for both instruments was presumably the flutist Ferdinand Bogner, a friend of Schubert's.
