All the Orchestral Trios appear to be relatively late works, probably dating from around 1754-55. The six Orchestral Trios Op. 1, which appeared in 1755 or early 1756, were Stamitz's first published works and proved highly influential throughout Europe. Cast in four movements, like many of his later symphonies, the Op. 1 Trios are attractive works and rather more sophisticated in construction than the works of many of his contemporaries. Stamitz eschews strict counterpoint of the kind frequently found in the baroque trio sonata but frequently introduces short imitative passages between the three instrumental parts which serve to propel the music forward. Slow movements are more simply constructed and are not dissimilar in style to certain types of operatic aria of the period. The minuets, sturdy and strongly rhythmical, lack something of the lilting quality of the Viennese minuet but often contain surprising harmonic twists in the Trios, which reveal occasional traces of Eastern European folk-music. The finales are typically light and bustling in character, frequently resembling the French gigue in style.
