Is there a recommended version for Weber (or should I say Kuffner's) Introduction, Theme and Variation?
I would like to order it.

The Kuffner-attributed work is the posthumous one. Op. 33 is the Seven Variations.
/also eagerly awaiting which is better edition -- Drucker or Kohl/B&H.

Thank you.
One more thing. Do you imply it's not composed by Weber,but Kuffner? Is this person a composer/editor of later period? Sorry for asking, but I'm just too ignorant..

There are references to a "lost" work written by Weber as a gift to Heinrich Baermann. The Intro, Theme and Variations was believed to be this work, but many scholars think it was actually written by Josef Kuffner, one of Weber's students, who may have tried to pass off the work under Weber's name.

I am talking about Op.33. I didn't realize there were two. I thought that was the disputed work.
Anyway, Op.33 it is. So what are your thoughts?
