The Symphony in F minor, Pleyel’s only complete surviving orchestral work in this key, was published in 1787 by Jean-Jérôme Imbault in Paris and was probably written the previous year or even slightly earlier. Its source of inspiration is easily indentifiable, namely Joseph Haydn’s “Sturm und Drang” works of the late 1760s and early 1770s.
