GIOVANNI BATTISTA SAMMARTINI (1701-1775): Late Symphonies, Vol. 2 - in D, JC11, in E Flat, JC28, in D, JC17, in G, JC40 & in E Flat, JC26.

Description: The second of two discs which cover the never-published (because looted by the French during the Napoleonic Wars and only recently searched out in Parisian archives), late nine symphonies written after 1760. Stylistically, these are the symphonies which most illustrate Myslivecek's comment about Sammartini, "I have found the father of Haydn's style." Accademia d'Arcadia; Allesandra Rossi Lürig.
