Georg Philipp Telemann: Sämtliche Bläserkonzerte on 8 CDs

Abschluss einer großen Konzertedition Telemanns Bläserkonzerte – komplett!

Telemann hat für alle Blasinstrumente seiner Epoche Instrumentalkonzerte geschrieben: für Oboe und Oboe d'amore, für Traversflöte (Blockflöte) und Flauto pastorale u. a. Da er fast alle diese Instrumente selbst spielen konnte, schrieb er extrem idiomatische Partien, die dem Instrument ebenso schmeicheln, wie sie dem Spieler spontan einleuchten. Die Konzerte zeigen einen Reichtum an unterschiedlichen (und oft eigentümlichen) Besetzungen, konzertanten Verfahren und Formen auf und sind mitunter sehr groß dimensioniert . Auf jeden Fall tut sich mal wieder ein Kosmos an Spielfreude und Fantasie im italienischen, französischen, deutschen und polnischen Stil auf, der seinesgleichen sucht, und deswegen liess sich cpo mit Freuden auf das Abenteuer einer Gesamteinspielung aller Telemannschen Bläserkonzerte mit La Stagione und Camerata Köln ein. Jetzt veröffentlichen wir diese Konzertjuwelen in einer 8-CD-Box zu einem sehr günstigen Preis. »Zusammengehalten durch das Gravitationszentrum eines fest umrissenen, klar erkennbaren Personalstils entfalten Telemanns Konzerte einen Kosmos feinsinnigster Musik, in den einzutauchen auch heutige Hörer auf das Reichste beschenkt und der zugleich erfahrbar macht, warum Telemann seinen Zeitgenossen als überragende Musikerpersönlichkeit galt«, schreibt unser Textautor Prof. Wolfgang Hirschmann, dem auch zu verdanken ist, dass in dem Booklet zu Vol. 8 eine Liste enthalten ist, die alle Konzerte auf den acht CDs nach Besetzungen ordnet. Dazu werden Tonart, TWV-Nummer sowie die jeweilige CD mit den Tracknummern genannt.

Telemann's Wind Concertos – Complete!

Telemann's Wind Concertos – Complete! Telemann wrote instrumental concertos for all the wind instruments of his epoch – for example, for oboe and oboe d'amore and for transverse flute, recorder, and flauto pastorale. Since he could play most of these instruments, he wrote extremely idiomatic parts showing each instrument in a favorable light and spontaneously appealing to the instrumentalist. The concertos exhibit a wealth of varied (and often unusual) ensemble formations, Concerto practices and forms, and what are sometimes broad dimensions. In any case, a one-of-kind cosmos of performance joy and fantasy spreads out in the Italian, French, German, and Polish styles, and it was because of its uniqueness that cpo was delighted to set out on the adventure of a complete recording of Telemann's wind concertos with La Stagione and the Camerata Köln. We are now releasing these Concerto gems in an 8 CD box at a special low price. »Held together by the gravitational center of a firmly delineated, clearly recognizable personal style, Telemann's concertos unfold a cosmos of the most finely sensitive music, and delving into it also rewards today's listener with the richest gifts while also enabling us to experience for ourselves why Telemann's contemporaries regarded him as an outstanding musical personality.« Prof. Wolfgang Hirschmann, who wrote our booklet text, is also to be thanked for supplying Vol. 8 with a list ordering all the concertos on the eight CDs by their instrumental ensembles. The key, TWV number, and the particular CD with the pertinent track numbers are also indicated.
