About this item
Representing the transition from the Baroque to Classical period, Johann Stamitz's (1717-1757) Symphony No. 8 reflects the composer's involvement in the Mannheim School where he was one of the primary conductors in the mid-1700s. This accessible arrangement maintains the beautiful musical clarity of the original and retains the feel of playing original string orchestra literature. Written for success, this piece is in G major and all parts stay in first-position with easy rhythms.

Composer
Johann Stamitz (1717-1757)
Jan Václav Antonín Stamic (later, during his life in Mannheim germanized as Johann Wenzel Anton Stamitz) (June 18, 1717, Deutschbrod, Bohemia – March 27, 1757, Mannheim, Electoral Palatinate) was a Czech composer and violinist. Johann was the father of Carl Stamitz and Anton Stamitz, also composers. His music reflects the transition of the baroque period to the classical era.
