Telemann: Horn Concertos and Overtures

Deutsche Naturhornsolisten;
Neue Düsseldorfer Hofmusik

MDG 605 1045-2

Telemann's public image has for too long been dominated by the "obsessive composer of table music, who is opposed to his wife's wastefulness". It's about time that CD's like this show the imaginative and imaginative Telemann. For centuries one groped over the number of his works in the dark. Today we know: There are about 3621 of them, and Telemann demands extraordinary things from the instrumentalist - he reckons with the alert player who does not spoil the punch lines. It is obvious that the demands on the original valveless instruments are intensified. The 5 members of the Deutsche Naturhorn Solisten ensemble are without exception musicians who live up to this claim, as they are mentioned in the same breath as the Concentus musicus, the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra and others. FONO FORUM rightly considers them "...impeccable virtuosos of their difficult subject!"
