Annotation
The overture of Die Zauberharfe (The Magic Harp) was associated with the Rosamunde incidental music in a 1855 publication of the score parts of that overture, indicating it as overture to the drama Rosamunde. There is however no proof it was ever Schubert's intention to associate that overture with the rest of the Rosamunde music.
The overture used for the stage production of Rosamunde was the overture Schubert had originally composed for Alfonso und Estrella, but Schubert thought it less suitable for that opera.
