Fils Sei sinfonie Op.2 (Six Symphponies Op.2) for Orchestra (Full Score, paperback)
Anton Fils (also Antonín Fils, Johann Anton Fils, Johann Anton Filtz), 1733 – 1760 was a German classical composer. He was born in Eichstätt, Bavaria. Fils studied law and theology at the University of Ingolstadt, and in 1754 became part of the "Mannheimer Hofkapelle" as a cellist. In 1757 he married Elizabeth Range, and in 1759 the couple bought a house.
Although he died aged 26, he left an extensive body of work, including at least thirty-four symphonies. In addition he composed about thirty concertos, mainly for cello and for flute, only about half of which have survived. Fils died in Mannheim and was buried on 14 March 1760.
