The so-called Leonore Overture no. 1 is third in the series by chronology, having been written in 1806\/07 for a performance in Prague that never materialised. For a long while it was erroneously regarded as a predecessor to the Leonore Overture no. 2 that Beethoven discarded, which greatly tarnished its reception. And yet it pays off to take an impartial look at this overture, which is substantially shorter than nos. 2 and 3, since with its more lyrical than dramatic character, it casts a new light on Beethoven's struggle to find the ideal opening to his stage work. Featuring a new preface, it now appears as a study edition prepared on the basis of the musical text of the Beethoven Complete Edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eInventory # :  51489044\u003cbr\u003e\nUPC:  888680991241\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN:  \u003cbr\u003e\nWidth:  6.75\"\u003cbr\u003e\nLength:  9.5\"\u003cbr\u003e\nHeight:  0.153\"\u003cbr\u003e\nProduct Weight:  0.3 lbs.\u003cbr\u003e\nNumber of Pages:  36\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Henle Urtext Edition","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49383012335910,"sku":"51489044","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0128\/7762\/7456\/files\/69171eee-8a08-5657-b7aa-1c3f8a77fac7.jpg?v=1723649271","url":"https:\/\/retrostar-gifts.myshopify.com\/products\/overture-no-1-for-the-opera-leonore-study-score","provider":"Retrostar Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
