Description
Ever wondered how the Operatic Overture came into existence? Take a minute to get the scoop!
Fun Fact
The roots of the opera Overture begin with the first surviving opera, Peri’s L’Euridice in the year 1600. Peri included an instrumental “ritornello” at the beginning of the opera. This planted the seeds for what would eventually become the full-blown overture.
