Portuguese composer Francisco Antonio de Almeida is remembered today for a small but significant collection of secular and sacred vocal works and the Sinfonia No 1 belongs to latter part of Almeida's career as a composer at the court of D. Joao V in Lisbon, c. 1726. Following a resurgence of interest in Almeida's work with recent performances of the "dramma comica 'La Spinalba'" and his oratorio "La Giuditta" the "Sinfonia No 1" newly engraved from manuscript is a valuable addition to the canon of works from this outstanding composer.
