Sinfonia F-Dur

Orchestral music played a significant role in the output of Wilhelm Friedemann Bach. In his early years as a professional organist at the Sophienkirche in the Saxon capital Dresden (1733-1746), he developed his own unmistakable personal style in a series of ambitious concertos and sinfonias. The surviving body of W. F. Bach's sinfonias has been affected by considerable losses. The Sinfonia in D major (BR-WFB C-Inc. 16), published here for the first time, was attributed to both Johann Sebastian Bach and Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, however on stylistic grounds, it is more likely attributable to W. F. Bach. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3230500.

The Sinfonia in D major (BR-WFB C 8) was probably composed in the mid-1750s during Bach's tenure as organist and Director Musices in Halle. Evidence shows that it was used as the instrumental introduction to the Whitsun cantata Dies ist der Tag (BR-WFB F 13 / Fk 85). However, this is not a piece characterized by the church style, hence a separate performance in a secular context is not only possible, but was probably intended by the composer. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3230400.

W. F. Bach's sinfonias were composed largely during his tenure in Dresden (1733-1746). They are contributions to a new and scarcely formed genre which was also preoccupying other young composers at that same time. In contrast to the capricious, humorous sinfonias BR-WFB C 1-6, the two-movement Sinfonia in D minor (C 7) is an unusually serious and compactly worked-out piece. The sinfonia belongs to an extensive repertoire of similar orchestral works which were performed as instrumental graduals during the celebration of the Mass in the Catholic Court Church in Dresden. Score and part available separately - see item CA.3230300.

Ludwig van Beethoven stellte seine 8. Sinfonie am 27. Februar der Offentlichkeit vor; zuvor erklangen anlasslich dieser Akademie das Schwesterwerk, die Sinfonie Nr. 7 A-Dur, sowie die Schlachtensinfonie 'Wellingtons Sieg oder die Schlacht bei Vittoria', die Beethoven einen seiner grossten Erfolge als Komponist bescherte. Zwar war die Aufnahme der Achten durch das Publikum nach den vorangegangenen Programmpunkten eher kuhl, und auch heute noch steht die Achte wie auch etwa die Pastorale im Schatten der ungeraden Sinfonien - doch gewinnt sie bei Horern mehr und mehr an Beliebtheit: die vielen unerwartenden Wendungen in diesem Werk liessen die Einschatzugn eines Paradebeispiels fur den Humor in der Musik entstehen.Herbert Schneider legt in seiner Werkeinfuhrung dar, wie die Achte entstand, erstmals aufgefuhrt, gestochen und schliesslich gedruckt, wie sie auf Zeitgenossen und spatere Generationen wirkte, und schildert dies in diesem Buch auf Grund wissenschaftlich begrundeter Fakten auf anschauliche Weise; analytische und die Interpretation betreffende Kommentare schliessen sich an. Anregungen zur weiteren Beschaftigung mit dieser popularen Sinfonie geben Literaturhinweise und eine Diskographie. Anhand der vollstandig wiedergegebenen Partitur kann der Leser den Notentext beim Horen verfolgen und die analytischen Kommentare nachvollziehen.
