The 6th piece, "Theme and Variations" (A minor), is a work based on the most famous No. 24 from Paganini's 24 Caprices. In addition to Liszt, many composers such as Brahms, Rachmaninoff, Szymanowski, and Lutosławski have written variations based on this theme. While the original work consists of 11 variations and a finale, Liszt also followed this structure, and this 6th piece comprises 11 variations and a coda.
