Suppé's Poet & Peasant (Dichter und Bauer)*
Best described as a "comedy with songs," Suppé's Dichter und Bauer (Poet and Peasant) three-act operetta premiered on August 24, 1846, at Vienna's Theater an der Wien, where Suppé had recently taken up the post of Kapellmeister. The book and lyrics are by Gustav Quedenfeldt, Eugen Rer, and K. Elmar. The version one is likely to see today is an arrangement made in 1936 by Franz Werther, the pen-name of Franz Wickenhauser (1872 - 1940). Suppé had not mastered the large-scale construction of scenes and acts that mark his later operettas, but the smaller elements of his style are all in place.

Preformed By : Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra
Conducted By : Daniel Barenboim

Hope You Enjoy this Powerful Overture! =]
