Description: The Symphony in D major ‘La Chasse’ (1793) reflects the popularity of hunting music, and is heard here for the first time with the expanded orchestration of trumpets and a large kettledrum (which is why it’s a World Premiere). The overtures represent Wranitzky’s skill as a composer for the theatre, as does the masterfully scored Symphony in C major (1798) in which the composer repurposes some incidental and ballet music.
