Poet and Peasant and Other Great Overtures in Full Score (Dover Orchestral Music Scores)

A prolific writer of theatrical music whose works ranged from incidental music for operettas to full operas, Franz von SuppÃ© (1819â€“95) is perhaps best known as the composer of the overture from which this collection takes its name. According to Grove's Dictionary of Music and Musicians, "SuppÃ© is the earliest Viennese composer of musical farces whose works still survive as viable stage scores (and popular overtures) . . . . His light, fluent style includes the ability to vary a phrase length or melodic and rhythmic figure in a personal and immediately effective way."
In addition to the title piece â€• originally arranged for no less than 59 different combinations of instruments â€• this compilation includes the Vienna Jubilee Overture and the overtures to three of the composer's most popular works: Morning,Noon and Night in Vienna; Beautiful Galatea; and Light Cavalry. Reprinted from authoritative editions and offered in a convenient single-volume format, these full scores will delight students, musicians, and admirers of the celebrated Austrian composer.
