Trieste Overture - Pietro Deiro
Like all of Deiro's overtures, "Trieste" is in the style of Rossini's operatic overtures.A forceful, dramatic opening is followed by a warm bel canto melody then bounds into a series of opera buffa melodies, with dazzling bravura parts for everyone, even a rousing basso profundo for the bottom of the band. A brand-new festive melody, a breathtaking coda, and a dramatic maestoso restatement of the opening theme bring this happy escapade to a jubilant finale. Fun for everyone!

Poet and Peasant Overture - Franz von Suppé
Preludes and overtures were often written to set the mood of Viennese folk plays and therefore might be used for more than one production. Such was the case for Poet and Peasant, which introduced a comedy of the that name in 1846. The piece had already been heard as the overture to the play Lots of money, short of sleep and may also have prefaced two other plays. This overture did not belong to an opera until several years after its 1845 composition date. The themes from this overture are among the most often quoted material for comic effects for stage productions and animated cartoons. Probably, they represent, in sound, an era of nostalgia from the old-time park band concerts andare familiar to audiences of all age groups. This composition deserves to be heard in its original context as a serious, but highly entertaining, selection.
