Ludwig van Beethoven: Leonore Overture No. 3: Orchestra: Score
This item is not available anymore with the seller Musicroom
Of the four overtures that Beethoven composed for his only opera the Leonore Overture No. 3 is the most popular. The first reviewer found fault with it for its incessant dissonances and overblown fluttering of the violins (Wiener Theater-Zeitung 1806) but it soon became famous as one of the most imposing difficult yet richest and strangest of compositions (Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung 1810). This version of the Leonore Overture quickly established itself independently of the stage in the concert hall and has found a lasting place in the symphonic repertoire.
