Re: [ARSCLIST] Lysistrata Overture

[Punto <punto@xxxxxxxx>]

Steve,

Just a stab, but I see that Paul Lincke wrote an operetta (I assume it's 
an operetta, since I haven't seen or heard it, but operettas are what he 
wrote) titled Lysistrata that presumably has an overture. I think that, 
given his birth date of 1866, this might be a possibility. I feel like I 
have recording somewhere of a Lysistrata-related work by a Belgian or 
Dutch composer somewhere, but I can't summon up enough memory power to 
be more specific.

Hope this helps,

Peter Hirsch
