The answer would be c. 1723. But what he called Sinfonia was quite different from what we mean using the term today. He used the word for the three-part keyboard pieces he composed c. 1723 for his first son, Wilhelm Friedemann, for practicing his keyboard technique.

Bach also used the term Sinfonia for the instrumental movements, most of which in concerto form, which opened some of his cantatas.

Sinfonia, which is Italian spelling for the Greek term symphonia, simply means "sounding together" or "coordinated sounds". The Italian translation would be "concerto".
