The familiar yet unfamiliar father figure of Baroque music: he wrote orchestral suites, chamber music, operas, oratorios and cantatas, a vast output that has still not been fully explored. During his own lifetime he was hailed as one of the most prolific, versatile and innovative composers of his day: Georg Philipp Telemann. The early music movement has long held him in high regard and in recent decades has been responsible for the high-quality recordings that are the defining feature of the present collection.
"Telemann's 1733 compendium exhibits impeccable 'table manners' thanks to Concentus Musicus Wien's innate vivacity and Harnoncourt's charm offensive." BBC Music
""You'll rarely hear such personality in a Baroqueconcerto soloist as the extraordinary Emmanuel Pahud exhibits here. Berlin Baroque Soloists acclimatise effortlessly to an 18th-century palette, and distinguished colleagues they make for Pahud." Gramophone Editor's Choice
"These Suites, four for strings with oboes (recorded 1978), two with recorders (1966), are testimony to Telemann's fertile imagination. Splendidly played." BBC Music Five Stars
"Der Tag des Gerichts (The Day of Judgment) is a fine oratorio by anyone's standards and Harnoncourt's important recording is a must for those who admire Telemann's enlightened and sophisticated response to dramatic texts" Gramophone
