Georg Philipp Telemann: Musique de Table

Tafelmusik (table music) is a term used since the mid-16th century for music played at feasts and banquets. Some of the most significant composers of Tafelmusik included Johann Schein and Michael Praetorius, who wrote about the genre in his Syntagma musicum of 1619. Composed in 1733, Telemann's Tafelmusik has been compared as a collection to the renowned Brandenburg Concertos of Johann Sebastian Bach in clearly demonstrating the composer's supreme skill in handling a diversity of musical genres and a variety of instruments. Played here by the Freiburger Barockorchester under the direction of their leader Gottfried von der Goltz, these Baroque gems shine as never before. Special pricing makes this set ideal for gift-giving.

"Telemann’s worklist is vast enough to scare off the crowds. Here he’s at his best, creating three lavish menus of suites, concertos and chamber music. The Freiburg players attack it all with light-footed grace." -The Times

"I was reminded time and again that Telemann's music is extraordinarily good, and amazed at the quality of the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra's performances. This is an unmitigated joy." -Gramophone

"Readers familiar with the accomplishments of the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra will be expecting great things and, by and large, they are unlikely to be disappointed. Tempos are judicious...the many solo contributions of the Freiburg set make considerable appeal." -International Record Review
