The Sinfonia concertante No. 7 in E-flat major by Carl Philipp Stamitz is a brilliant example of the Mannheim school style, showcasing the innovative orchestral techniques for which the court orchestra was famous. This work typically features two or more solo instruments (often including clarinet and other winds) in dialogue with the orchestra, blending elements of the symphony and concerto forms. Stamitz was instrumental in popularizing this genre throughout Europe.
