Antonio Vivaldi - Violin Concerto in E minor, RV277 ''Il favorito'' - III. Allegro

"Le Roman d'Elvire" (The Tale of Elvira), an opéra-comique in three acts with music by Ambroise Thomas (1811–1896), premiered in Paris on 4 February 1860. Set to an original libretto by Alexandre Dumas (père), the work was met with anticipation but failed to captivate Parisian audiences. Indeed, the failure inspired Thomas to reassess his compositional style, and his biggest successes - "Mignon" and "Hamlet" - followed some years later. For Dumas's part, he never wrote a libretto for the stage again. Nevertheless, this overture is another unknown masterpiece by a known master; written entirely in 6/8 (though in different tempi), the interconnected themes are distinctly and colorfully set apart, while sonata form is eschewed almost entirely. 

World premiere recording. The orchestral realization was created using Finale 27 and NotePerformer 4.
