 Potpourris became especially popular in the 19th century.The opera overtures of French composers, such as François-Adrien Boïeldieu (1775–1834), Daniel Auber (1782–1871) and Ferdinand Hérold (1791–1833), or the Englishman Arthur Sullivan (1842–1900) belong to this type.Richard Strauss called the overture to his "Die schweigsame Frau" a "pot-pourri".
