Composed in Vienna in 1784. The theme of this variation, consisting of an 8-bar antecedent and consequent, features a melody doubled in octaves or thirds. The scale expands in the last two variations. Throughout the piece, the use of double notes, hand crossing, and a wide registral range is prominent.
