Euryanthe Overture, J.291 Set of Parts Weber, Carl Maria von 1786-1826 composer Sargeant Jr., Richard W. editor notated music notated music Edwardsville, IL Serenissima Music, Inc 2022 Newly engraved urtext. zxx print unmediated volume 23 parts Widely considered a grand, heroic, romantic opera and one of Weber's finest, <i>Euryanthe</i> is unfortunately rarely performed because of its weak libretto and plot's implausibility. Such defects don't apply to instrumental works; and the overture - which contains some of the best music in the opera - has become a worldwide concert favorite. As with Weber's other opera overtures the themes are closely linked to the opera and perfectly capture the mood and tone of the opera, first performed in Vienna's Karntnertheater on October 25, 1823. This newly engraved edition by Richard W. Sargeant, Jr. has been meticulously researched and shows the orchestrational brilliance of this classic overture in a clean, readable format sure to be appreciated by performers and students alike.
