| This recording presents Telemann’s music in the way a subscriber to his monthly journal would have encountered it in early 18th-century Hamburg, that is to say, as a delectable musical medley of various genres and timbres. It serves up a colorful, up-to-date compendium of galante popular music. Each Lection teases the subscriber’s musical appetite, with a delicately ornamented tune here, a brightly jolly dance there, mingling charming pieces meant to delight with expressive, enthralling miniatures that more deeply “move the affections,” and some acutely dramatic moments between. | ||
