Daniel-François-Esprit Auber represents the essence of Romantic opéra-comique with vivacious and elegant works that enjoyed huge popularity for decades. He collaborated with a fellow luminary, Ferdinand Hérold, for Vendôme en Espagne, a work rich in Spanish dances and colour. With a vivid display of Auber’s gift for melody and orchestration, the overture to La Fiancée proved so successful and popular that Liszt arranged it as a fantasia three times. L’Enfant prodigue contains his longest overture, a powerful statement reflecting the tragic aspects of this Biblical parable.
