Apart from fulfilling its original function in the opera, the Overture to Euryanthe has long been a popular concert piece on its own. Carl Maria von Weber effectively evokes the dramatic conflicts of the action on stage. The festive upward surge at the beginning leads to mysterious forest whispers of the muted strings in the Largo section. This is followed by a short fugato section that opens onto the recapitulation of the works rousing themes and the hymnic-jubilant close.
