These four works are among the few surviving examples of Muzio Clementi's early orchestral music. The two Symphonies, Op. 18 follow Classical models but are full of the surprise modulations and dynamic contrasts to be found in his piano sonatas. The Piano Concerto has a dazzling solo part and some delightful orchestral touches.
Clementi's Symphonies Nos. 1-4 can be heard on Naxos 8573071 and 8573112.
