In this book Steven Vande Moortele offers a comprehensive account
of operatic and concert overtures in continental Europe between
1815 and 1850. Discussing a broad range of works by German, French,
and Italian composers, it is at once an investigation of the
Romantic overture within the context of mid-nineteenth century
musical culture and an analytical study that focuses on aspects of
large-scale formal organization in the overture genre. While the
book draws extensively upon the recent achievements of the 'new
Formenlehre', it does not use the overture merely as a vehicle for
a theory of romantic form, but rather takes an analytical approach
that engages with individual works in their generic context.
