In 1900, 5 years after composer Franz von Suppe's death, Dichter und Bauer (Poet and Peasant) was made into a three act operetta using music by him. What we now know as this overture originally premiered as incidental music by Suppe to a Karl Elmar comedy of that name on 24th August 1846 at the Theater an der Wien, in Vienna.
This edition keeps to the original scoring but gives Horns in F (originally in D, F or Bb), Trumpets in Bb (originally in D and F) and Clarinet parts in Bb (originally C or Bb).
