A precursor in this field as in so many others, Telemann gave the viola its very first masterpieces, immediately establishing it as a solo instrument in its own right. Alongside Sabine Fehlandt and the musicians of the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin, Antoine Tamestit pays splendid tribute to this pioneering music, which blends melodic charm and contrapuntal rigour into an organic whole.
"Tamestit's celebration of Telemann's viola writing, and the characterful vignettes which provide indelible colour to his orchestral suites, is an evenly sustained delight" - BBC Music Magazine
