Six Symphonies
View through CrossRef
This volume is devoted to works by the Italian composer Antonio Brioschi (active ca. 1725–50), a pioneering figure in the history of the symphony, and it offers an opportunity to extend our knowledge in the field of instrumental music of the early classical period. The six symphonies published here for the first time in a modern edition belong to the earliest phases of the symphony in the eighteenth century and have been selected from the composer's fifty-one extant symphonies. Two symphonies are dated 1734, three were copied no later than 1741, and one probably dates from the early 1740s.
