looking for chord piece and theme variations (simple, to back to piano study)

[aindavou]

I was looking for a simple ‘theme and variations’. I many times stopped, because tendinitis, but now I’m all right and looking for back to the piano life.

Backing I’ll try better my movements and play small things and slowing, too will not play nothing I had played in other times. (need) and want try new things.

I had a much of small things to try and study slow.

. But I want study a ‘theme and variations’, I like much it.
. Too need a good slowing and chord piece.

Thx you a lot

Hi! Sorry for you tendinitis...anyway, I'm not sure what you mean by "chord piece" but I guess...

Mozart-Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Theme and Variations
Mozart-Piano Sonata No.6 (3rd mvt.-piano sonata mvts. can also be them and variations, in case if you didn't know)
Mozart-Piano Sonata No.11 (1st mvt.)
Schubert Impromptu Op.143 No.3 (maybe too much)

Not remember, a lot of time stopped (me just remember anything like, theme1 theme2, bridge, variations, coda, or something like this).

Well, by chord piece I try say: a music all that with chord progression,(“ without melody + accompaniment”, well I try saying, I know it have a melody…)  (I’m not native English, forgive me this words).

I like much k.331 :p


Other suggestions? (I need simple piece, do not want play hard now)

Hmmm...a chord piece...Prelude Op.28 No.20 by Chopin?

for simple but charming themes and variations appropriate in difficulty, i'd suggest some of the Kabalevsky (student level) themes and var.'s

varied difficulty frm int/late int to prob early advanced (i.e the op 87 sets are not 'easy' by any means!)

Versailles Variations by Dalmaine.  I am not sure if this is still available - published by Forsyth.  I use this one a lot for teaching purposes; not only the simple but beautiful melody, but also very effective.
