The ''William Tell'' Overture is the overture to the opera ''William Tell'' (original French title ''Guillaume Tell''), whose music was composed by Gioachino Rossini. ''William Tell'' premiered in 1829 and was the last of Rossini's 39 operas, after which he went into semi-retirement, although he continued to compose cantatas, sacred music and secular vocal music. The overture is in four parts, each following without pause. There has been repeated use (and sometimes parody) of parts of this overture in both classical music and popular media, most famously as the theme music for ''The Lone Ranger'' in radio, television and film.〔Studwell, William Emmett (1997). (''The Americana Song Reader'' ). Routledge, pp. 90–91. ISBN 0-7890-0150-0〕 It was also used as the theme music for the British television series ''The Adventures of William Tell''. Franz Liszt prepared a piano transcription of the overture in 1838 (S.552) which became a staple of his concert repertoire.〔Hamilton, Kenneth (2005). (''The Cambridge Companion to Liszt'' ). Cambridge University Press, p. 82. ISBN 0-521-62204-2〕 There are also transcriptions by other composers, including versions by Louis Gottschalk for two and four pianos and a duet for piano and violin.〔Starr, S. Frederick (2000). (''Louis Moreau Gottschalk'' ). University of Illinois Press, pp. 84 and 180. ISBN 0-252-06876-9〕 ==Instrumentation== The overture is scored for: a piccolo, a flute, two oboes (first or second oboe doubles a cor anglais), two clarinets in A, two bassoons, four French horns in G and E, two trumpets in E, three trombones, timpani, triangle, bass drum and cymbals, and strings.
