 Re: Rossini Introduction Theme Variations - Program notes
Author: Jack Kissinger

It's only news if it's accurate. Which it isn't. Kuffner wrote an Introduction, Theme and Variations (for clarinet and string quartet) that, for many years, was erroneously attributed to Weber. He has no connection to the Rossini.

No one knows for sure who wrote the Rossini Introduction, Theme and Variations. There is no definitive proof of authorship but I think that most musicologists now believe Rossini did not write the work. I remember reading an article (years ago) that claims the manuscript is in two different hands. Have you come across that? (Sorry, it was a long time ago and I don't have the reference.)

Best regards,
jnk

Edit: BTW, in addition to the possibility that a clarinetist may have written the work, I have seen speculation that someone in Rossini's workshop of composers might have written it.
