  Giovanni Battista Sammartini - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He counted Gluck among his students, and was himself a prolific composer of operas, symphonies (over seventy), concertos and chamber music, which show, the symphonies especially, the beginnings of a change from the brief opera-overture style and the introduction of a new seriousness and use of thematic development that prefigure Haydn and Mozart.
Sammartini's works are referred to, in publications or recordings, either by the opus number they received in his lifetime, or by the J-C numbers they receive in the Jenkins-Churgin catalog referred to below.
Newell Jenkins edited some of Sammartini's works, including a Magnificat, for the first time (he was also an editor of works by Vivaldi, Paisiello and Boccherini among others).

Not to be confused with his better-remembered, prolific younger brother Giovanni Battista, Giuseppe Sammartini was equally renowned in his day, though more as an instrumentalist than a composer.
Sammartini employs just two violins, cello, and contrabass, and this chamber approach allows for great clarity and gracefulness, though at the expense of some typically Handelian grandeur.
Likewise the two remarkably animated brief solo organ sonatas by Giovanni Battista featured in the middle and at end of the program also appropriately complement the playful nature of the repertoire.
