Kinderman's study of the compositional history of Beethoven's Diabelli Variations includes the first extended investigation and reconstruction of the sketches and drafts, and reveals, contrary to earlier views of its chronology, that it was actually begun in 1819, then put aside, and completed in 1822-3.
