Gossecs three symphonies op.8 proclaim their modernity through their use of clarinets and of a Minuet and Trio, this being rare in Paris at that period. Gossec (who had been born in Hainault) also mastered the styles of his adopted land: the ballets in his tragédie lyrique Sabinus can be placed directly in the orchestral tradition of J.Ph. Rameau, the older composer who had welcomed Gossec to the French capital in 1751.
