Toussaint L'Ouverture, op.46 <1901>
Specific information available for subscribers.
Toussaint L'Ouverture was a colorful historical figure, born in slavery, who rose to rule Haiti in 1801. His surname, which he normally spelled "Louverture," has nothing to do with the musical form, although Coleridge-Taylor's work happens to be a concert overture.
