You play very beautifully … sounds a bit like a pianoforte .. Thank you very much for the rare and wonderful upload

[@GuglielmoEsposito]

It is a pianoforte

[@_PROCLUS]

Thank you for the kind response … That's what i thought, too … The sound is beautiful and I enjoyed your very fine playing very much … TY

[@GuglielmoEsposito]

@BaroqueMusicOnly Yes he did have a set of 12 variations on this tune as well... during that time this was a very much used theme to put on sets of variations.

Bravo! Cheers from Brazil

No cambio de instrumento, esto es un pianoforte Stein (1780). Pianos tenían más pedales para obtener diferentes efectos. El pedal "moderatore" genera un sonido muy suave y dulce, por eso parece un instrumento diferente. Lo siento por mi español no es mi idioma.

@moonpagan This set of variations is very very nice, I really like it. My only concern is that you should not mistake Johann Christian Bach (known as the London Bach whom also Mozart met when he was a kid and traveled to England) with Johann Christoph Friedrich Bach, who's Christian Bach's brother. For the rest, I totally agree with you, these composers need to be played more often and not only just on CDs but also in theatres and other concert venues.

THERE IS NO SIGN THAT THAT HE CONFOUNDS THIS, SO WHY DO YOU MENTION IT?

[@loganfruchtman953]

Mozart wasn’t the only composer who wrote variations to Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

[@GuglielmoEsposito]

@lucas6534 Un concepto erróneo común, reforzado por su aparición como una respuesta correcta en la edición original de Trivial Pursuit, es que la música fue escrita por Mozart. Mozart no compuso la melodía francesa original, pero escribió 12 variaciones listadas como KV 265. Otro concepto erróneo es que todas las versiones de la canción se pueden calificar como rimas de guardería; al contrario, el texto de la versión original en francés, no estaba pensado para los oídos de los niños

I can't see how JCF Bach is transitional as stated by uploader Guglielmo Esposito. Like his older brother JC (both sons of Anna Magdalena), to me he sounds unmistakably [early-]classical, by no means 'nascent'ly so. His birth year is the same as Joseph Haydn's; by the time he died in 1795 Mozart was dead and Haydn had written all or most of his twelve London symphonies, bibles of the classical style.

very sorry that his beautiful works had been destroyed during WWII before I could hear.

this song by Mozart not Bach

[@jpuelopezify]

This 'song' (I'd call it 'piece') is neither by Johann Christoph Bach (not Johann Sebastian Bach, whom you seem to mistake him with) nor by Mozart. It's a popular song for which both composers made their own set of variations. This one was composed by Johann Christoph Bach (a son of Johann Sebastian's), and is very different from the one composed by Mozart.

[@clivegoodman16]

amy rose gamer. Both Mozart and this composer who is a son of JS Bach, composed a set of variations to the same theme. However the variations are quite different.

[@Alix777.]

The original piece was probably written around 1740, it's a french "bergerie", a country song. The author is unknown. Franz Liszt and Erwin Schulhoff also wrote variations on this charming theme.
