The Glory of Telemann!



I ADORE TELEMANN! One of my very favorite composers of all time. He was the greatest composer of his time and even over-shadowed Bach. Adored in his native Germany and in France. His chamber music is totally magnificent and finds it's culmination in the "Paris Quartets(1738)" and in the complete "Tafelmusik"! His ability to integrate both the Italian AND French styles in to his works made him the darling of all of Europe!

VIVE TELEMANN!!
