Perhaps I can add to the "Lustspiel Ouvertuere" confusion. I have
supplied an MP3 file of my 48-key arrangement of what I believe to be
the Lustspiel Ouvertuere (Comedy Overture). Until recently (10 minutes
ago, in fact) I hadn't realised that there were two overtures by the
same composer, with similar titles. Confusion is therefore inevitable.
I have good reason to believe that the music in the attached file is
the "Comedy Overture", rather than the "Hungarian Comedy Overture",
and perhaps this is the tune that Nicholas Simons has on his organ?
Perhaps somebody could confirm the title of this piece.
If there are any more Comedy Overtures, perhaps they could make
themselves known now, so that we can all have a good laugh.
