‘Der Laecherliche Printz Jodelet’ literally means ‘the Ridiculous Prince Jodelet’ - and the deliberately musically tasteless & ‘silly’ overture to this rompy little Singspiel of 1726 sums up its title very aptly / what fun to write such dreck comedy - though I doubt very much old Fux reprinting his Gradus that year would approve the results ! LoL
I love the sound of this overture. I wish Keiser was performed or recorded more regularly.
The sudden appearence of La Folia startled me.
2:55
Who influenced who, Keiser Telemann or the other way around ? Very simple but effective and inventive music !
3:25 Händels Sarabande?
Older than that. This is the La Folia schema that originated in the Renaissance.
@@Mercer1012 Yes, you are right. I know a lot versions of La Folia, but they don't sound like Händel's Sarabande. This one does.
@@freiermensch6569 It just sounds like a La Folia to me. Handel's was in D-minor, this is in G-minor.
