Symphonies Nos. 1-21

The great composer’s 21 early symphonies, written between 1764 and 1771 when he was still a boy, are reproduced here from the authoritative Breitkopf and Härtel Complete Works Edition. Rich in melody, musical invention, and a much-imitated but unsurpassed grace, they allow musicians and music lovers to savor and study the composer’s youthful development and mastery of the symphonic form.
