Wanhal, Johann Baptist (1739-1813)

The symphonies of Johann Baptist Wanhal (1739-1813), one of the most prolific and important of Haydn's Viennese contemporaries, are among the most important works of their kind from the late-18th century. Bold and imaginative, powerful and lyrical, Wanhal's symphonies are only now beginning to win wider recognition as the masterpieces they are. This volume contains four symphonies: Bryan D17, d2, G11and C11 'Comista'.
