Overture to the 1828 opera "Der Vampyr" (The Vampire) by German composer Heinrich August Marschner (1795-1861), an pivotal figure in German Romantic opera. The opera is based on John Polidori's short story "The Vampyre."
Helmuth Froschauer conducts the WDR Rundfunkorchester Köln.
It is so good to hear something by Marschner. So often quoted by musicologists as "the link between Weber and Wagner", but so little played.
