Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach Sinfonia in G Major No. 4 Wq. 183-4 (H. 666)

ChatGPT4o writes as follows (please note that it may not be accurate):
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachʼs Sinfonia Wq. 183-4 (H. 666) is one of the most impressive works among his symphonies. The first movement begins with a powerful and energetic introduction that immediately captivates the audience. The following second movement expresses calm and deep emotions, creating a contrasting atmosphere. The final third movement is a rapid and lively finale that concludes the piece. This symphony demonstrates Emanuel Bachʼs innovative compositional techniques and his timeless musical expressiveness. His works significantly influenced the development of classical music and provided much inspiration to later composers.

Summarized by ChatGPT4o from the commentary attached to Sergio Cánovasʼs YouTube video of this piece:
Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachʼs Sinfonia Wq. 183-4 (H. 666) is a three-movement work rich in contrast and expressiveness. The first movement (in G major) is in ternary form, presenting a gentle and elegant theme by the orchestra, with flutes and oboes playing a lyrical contrasting motif. The development section features notable modulations, ornamentations, and dynamic contrasts, with woodwinds adding variation to the music. After a brief recapitulation, it transitions smoothly to the next movement. The second movement (in G minor) is also in ternary form, with strings playing a sorrowful theme while the woodwinds remain silent. The middle section modulates to B-flat major, creating a gentle contrast. The theme returns in the recapitulation, leading to a dramatic development before moving to the next movement. The third movement (in G major) is in a free theme and variations form, beginning with a hunting horn-like motif and developing vigorously. Bach skillfully uses sudden stops and abrupt phrase changes, adding contrasts in dynamics and ornamentation, and concludes with a powerful coda.
