Theme with V. in the modern. the understanding of this form arose, apparently, in the 16th century, when the passacaglia and chakons appeared, representing V. on unchanged bass (see Basso ostinato). J. Frescobaldi, G. Purcell, A. Vivaldi, I. S. Bach, G. F. Handel, F. Couperin and other composers of the 17-18 centuries. widely used this form. At the same time, V. developed on song themes borrowed from popular music (V. on the theme of the song “The Carrier of the Charioteer” by W. Bird) or composed by the author V.(I.S. Bach, Aria from 30 V.). This genus V. gained wide distribution in the 2nd floor. 18th and 19th centuries in the works of J. Haydn, V. A. Mozart, L. Beethoven, F. Schubert and later composers. They created various independent productions. in the form of V., often on borrowed topics, and introduced V. in sonata-symphonic. cycles as one of the parts (in such cases the theme was usually composed by the composer himself).
