- Summary
- This famous overure is often not credited to the person who actually composed it, the Vienna conductor Carl Binder (1816-1860). It was composed for a Vienna premiere of Offenbach's operetta given at the Carl-Theater on March 17, 1860 and incorporates a some of the more well-known tunes, including the very popular Galop, or Can-Can. The composer's own opening music for his 1858 operetta is more of a short prelude or introduction, in contrast to the orchestral showpiece created by Biinder. The score offered here is a reduced-format version of the newly edited and engraved score prepared by Clark McAlister first issued in large score and parts in 2008.
