This volume is devoted to works by the Italian composer Antonio Brioschi (active ca. 1725-1750), a pioneering figure in the history of the symphony, and it offers an opportunity to extend out knowledge in the filed of instrumental music of the early Classical period. The 12 symphonies published here for the first time in a modern edition belong to the earliest phases of the symphony in the eighteenth century and have been selected from the composer's 51 extant symphonies written about 1750. Two of the works in this volume and count among the few symphonies traceable from the 1730s.
The introduction includes a discussion of the composer, who worked near or in Milan parallel to Giovanni Battista Sammartini (ca. 1700-1775), the music of the edition, and performance practice issues. The Critical Report describes in detail the principal sources on which the edition is based--manuscript copies from Casale Monferrato, the Fonds Blancheton in Paris, and the Pachta archive in Prague--and the editorial method. In addition, the Critical Notes include information about 16 eighteenth-century secondary sources along with catalog listings for 12 symphonies, information that testifies to the wide dissemination of this music in Europe.
