Suppe's operetta Dichter und Bauer (Poet and Peasant) was the first to earn him a reputation as a composer in Vienna. His reputation as a conductor was established two years before at the Theater in der Josefstadt, where he composed incidental music to the play Ein Morgen, ein Mittag, und ein Abend in Wien, whose overture remains in the orchestral repertoire to this day. By the premiere of Dichter und Bauer, at the Theater an der Wien on August 24, 1846, Suppe was no longer conducting for free. The operetta was successful and the overture entered the orchestral repertoire soon after. The opening cello solo was even quoted in the American song published in 1894 - "I've been Working on the Railroad". The study score offered here is a reduced-format reissue the newly-engraved and reasreached large score first issued in 2007. IMSLP page All Music Guide

Suppe's sparkling seven-minute overture was composed for a stage play with added music first performed in Vienna's Theater in der Josefstadt on February 26, 1844 under the composer's baton. Suppe was fairly new at the podium and actually volunteered for the position with no pay in order have the opportunity to perform his own new works. Although not as famous as the later Poet and Peasant, it shares many of the features of the later masterwork. The study score here is a newly-engraved and researched performing edition prepared by Clark McAlister. IMSLP page All Music Guide
