Allegro Various Artists

The Vaterländischer Künstlerverein was a notable musical anthology published in two parts in 1823 and 1824, featuring 83 variations for piano on a theme by Anton Diabelli, contributed by 51 composers associated with Austria, including Ludwig van Beethoven, Carl Czerny, and Franz Schubert. The first part prominently features Beethoven's 33 Diabelli Variations, while the second includes works from lesser-known composers, reflecting a significant collaborative effort in the early 19th century, although many contributions have since faded from public recognition.
