Norbert Schultze: E- oder U-Komponist? Opern- oder Schlagerkomponist?Genau dazwischen, meint er selbst und beschreibt sein Leben, vom Geburtsort Braunschweig 1911 uber Studium in Koln und Munchen bis zum Studentenbrettel Die vier Nachrichter 1931, dem er unter dem Pseudonym Frank Norbert mit Unterbrechungen 4 Jahre lang angehort - zusammen mit Kurd E. Heyne, Bobby Todd und Helmut Kautner. Dazwischen ist er Opernkapellmeister in Heidelberg und Darmstadt, wird dort 1933 von den neuen Machthabern vertrieben, nach dem Erfolg seiner Oper Schwarzer Peter (Hamburg 1936) jedoch verwohnt und privilegiert, darf wahrend des Krieges Filmmusiken komponieren (u.a. Symphonie eines Lebens) und seine zweite Oper Das kalte Herz. 1945 drei Jahre Berufsverbot. Schreibt danach wieder Musik zu insgesamt 70 Filmen (u.a. 1958 Das Madchen Rosemarie), zu einem Musical Kapt'n Bay-Bay (Hamburg 1950), einer Operette Regen in Paris (Nurnberg 1956), der Fernseh-Oper Peter der dritte (ZDF 1966) und an die 100 Lieder und Chansons, von denen Lili Marleen (1938) ganz ohne sein Zutun weltweite Verbreitung findet. Schultze erzahlt uber seine Librettisten (Walter Lieck, Hans Leip, Fritz Grasshof u.a.) und seine wichtigsten Interpreten: Lale Andersen und Marlene Dietrich (Lili Marleen), Rudolf Schock (Ach, ich hab in meinem Herzen) und Hans Albers (Nimm mich mit, Kapitan, auf die Reise). Er berichtet aus sturmisch bewegter Zeit, fuhrt uns offen und ehrlich durch Hohen und Tiefen seines Lebens, ohne sich zu schonen und ohne eigene Fehler zu verschweigen.Ein hochinteressantes Dokument zur Zeitgeschichte, informativ, unterhaltsam und spannend.

Despite the numbering, the overture Leonore No. 2 was Beethoven's first effort to precede his only opera with an adequate introduction. It had been composed last minute and in between the rehearsals for the premiere of the opera Leonore oder Der Triumph der ehelichen Liebe (Leonore, or The Triumph of Marital Love) on 20 November 1805 at the Theater an der Wien. This comprehensive, programmatic work was met with incomprehension at first performances just like the opera itself. Beethoven felt compelled to re-write Leonore completely and presented it under its new title Fidelio. In 1806 he revised the overture to such an extent that a symphonic sonata movement emerged; with another incorrect numbering, Leonore No. 3 has gone down in music history and above all it has achieved a regular place in concert repertory. And in order to complete the confusion: written in 1806/07, only Overture No. 1 is Beethoven's chronologically last effort to write an overture for Leonore, before he - many years later - put an end to this infinite subject with the so-called Fidelio overture for the third version of the opera. After all, thanks to the search after a dramaturgically convincing beginning of the opera, the music world has been enriched by four quite different orchestra scores.The music text of the present score is based on Volume 11 of the Supplements to the Complete Edition. The performance material of the Fidelio and Leonore No. 3 overtures is available in Breitkopf Urtext editions..
