Carneval Of Venice

[Gordog209]

HI im looking for the Sheet of Carneval Of Venice, BUT i dont know who composed it. Can anyone help?

It's a folk song. There have been quite a lot of composers who wrote variations on it.
Here is a set of variations called "carnival of venice" but i can't see anything that looks like a theme or a simple folk tune in there, so it may not be what you're looking for.

EDIT: it's carnIval not carnEval, that might help when searching.

Here are some compositions:
