rticularly the case with the symphonies. Different editions have different numberings, and the confusion is increased by a further re-numbering of the piano symphonic scores arranged for two and four hands. In Breitkopf & Hartel's catalogue many works are included among the symphonies which are also found among the smaller compositions, and others are catalogued twice. Even the composer himself, in compiling his thematic catalogue, made mistakes. In the present list we have been content for the most part to state the numbers of the various instrumental works, without attempting to notify each individual composition. Indeed, to do otherwise would have called for an extensive use of music type. Nor have we thought it necessary to include the supposititious and doubtful works, for which Pohl's list may be consulted. INSTRUMENTAL 125 symphonies, including overtures to operas and plays. Of these 94 are published in parts, 40 in score; 29 remain in MS. About 40 have been arranged for pianoforte 2 hands, 60 for 4 hands, 10 for 8 hands. Pohl gives a thematic list of the 12 symphonies composed for Salomon, numbered in the order of their occurrence in the catalogue of the London Philharmonic Society. These include: TITLE OF WORK KEY DATE "The Surprise" G major 1791 "The Clock," referring D minor 1794 to the Andante "The Military" G major 1794 Other symphonies known by their titles are: TITLE OF WORK KEY DATE "Le Matin" D major "Le Midi" C major "Le Soir" G major 1761 "The Farewell" A major 1772 "Maria Theresa" C major 1773 "The Schoolmaster" E flat 1774 "Feuer Symphonie" (probably overture to "Die Feuersbrunst") A major 1774 "La Chasse" D major 1780 "Toy" Symphony C major 1780 "La Reine de France" B major for Paris, 1786 "The Oxford" G major 1788 "The Seven Words from the Cross."
