- "In the process of developing the movie, it was clear that it would need additional music not provided in the theatrical production. The opening of the film was a case in point. The establishing scenes and opening credits needed an extended musical accompaniment, so I [John Williams] decided to write an original cadenza and a set of decorative variations based on Jerry Bock's themes that would serve as an overture to the film [Fiddler on the roof]"--T.p. verso. In the film, this music appears after the Prologue and the song Tradition.
- Originally for solo violin and orchestra.
- Both parts are the same except one copy has the leaves in a trifold and the other has them detached.
