Hoboken I p. 208: S.Coll.Sy.15a but for reduced forces of piano accompanied by flute violin and cello ad lib. "The last six symphonies are even more brilliant clarinets are added except in no. 102; Haydn's determination to conquer new territory with each work is palpable. No. 99 in E♭ is his most elaborate symphonic essay in remote tonal relations; it also features a particularly warm slow movement in G major with extensive wind writing much commented on at the time. No. 101 'Clock' has by far the longest minuet and trio Haydn ever composed and a particularly brilliant rondo finale. No. 100 'Military' rapidly became his most popular owing to the slow movement based on a romance from the lyre concerto hVIIh:3 overlaid by massive percussion outbursts that audiences found deliciously terrifying." Georg Feder and James Webster in Grove Music Online. Printed by Clementi, Banger, Collard, Davis & Collard, 26, Cheapside unknown
