Description:
German composer Christoph Willibald Gluck (1714-1787) was a pivotal figure, bridging the gap between the Baroque and Classical periods. Composing in both Italy and France, he brought about many reforms to the practice of opera composition. While Gluck is predominantly known for his operas, he did write other music, including this Symphony (Sinfonia) in G, although it may have previously belonged to one of his fragmentary early operas, written between 1740-1760. Reprint of Adolf Hoffmann's edition. String count: 4-4-3-3-3 in set.
