•  The famous overture to the opera is often heard independently of the complete work. Its high-energy finale, ’March of the Swiss Soldiers’, is particularly familiar through its use in the American radio and television shows of The Lone Ranger. Several portions of the overture were used prominently in the films A Clockwork Orange and The Eagle Shooting Heroes; in addition, Dmitri Shostakovich quotes the main theme of the finale in the first movement of his 15th symphony.
