"The whole nature of Oberon, then, both in its subject and in the method of treating it which Weber was led to adopt, is orchestral rather than vocal; yet the freshness and charm of his melodies is if anything at its peak in the disjointed numbers which comprise it." Warrack: Carl Maria von Weber p. 326.
