Theme and Variations

Memorializing while breathing new life, composers have been putting their own stamps on the theme and variations form since 1538. This Sunday, Linli will play excerpts from some of the most famous examples of this musical form, and reflect on what we can learn about life and legacy from this enduring method of composition.
