Telemann, always full of surprises. The guy could do anything musically, and apparently as easily as you and I type these comments on TH-cam. One of the most impressive musical geniuses to come out of Germany in the early to mid 18th century. There must have been something in the water back then.
I am born in Magdeburg the city where Telemann is born and short before Telemann was born the whole city was completely destroyed and the most citizens where murdered... With Bach and Händel and their cities it was similar. I think that the war and the things that followed it make the generation of Telemann and the others developing their skills because of having a better life
I do recall the first time I heard this>>K.Redel Version Philips, still holds one captive in its majesty & beauty!! An early work from this musical polymath, whose works are NOW gradually coming out in LOTS of First Editions! The CPO Label is always a Flagship for this unflagging innovator and admirable Maestro! V Fine Magnificat in C TRY the lighter Deutsches Magnificat in G! ;->Viva GPTELEMANN.
Ah YES!!! This is unmistakable>>K.Redel on that Early Philips Double CD \With Mathew 1730 Passion, some while back now; the latest Version is on Christophorus = Allabastrina Choir & Consort under Elena Sartori, rather good too. Have a very soft-spot for this Redel one!! Excellent Work! early too...circa 1705??
A Magnificent Magnificat ! So well-performed here. It is unfortunate that Telemann is so overshadowed by some of his German contemporaries, deserving a higher profile than he normally receives.

Not really strange: when Telemann began writing very young on commission he was very often asked to reproduce Ouverture-partitas in Lullian style. He was very aware of the french style! He reports this well in his famous autobiography.

@@lanota5796 I know it is considered sacrilege to critizise Bach. Of course he was an absolute genius but his work also has some weaker points.The most obvious is the lack of structural variety.

In that respect lesser considered contemporaries like Telemann were more inventif.
@@christianwouters6764 As a matter of fact, badmouthing Bach is musical blasphemy. His music may be "predictable"...if you have an IQ of 240 or higher.

Strange but interesting; the homorythmic chorus parts at the beginning sound a bit like French style (Lully).
Not really strange: when Telemann began writing very young on commission he was very often asked to reproduce Ouverture-partitas in Lullian style. He was very aware of the french style! He reports this well in his famous autobiography.
I hear Vivaldi … in some parts, of course … fx. 2:04 Quia Respex
Where was the picture taken? I think it is writen יהוה on the paint, which is the "holiest" name of god in hebrew
Hier ist der Wohlverdienter Telemann-Kuss*!
Teleman enjoyed a long life.consider a lot composers died young.Such as purcel mozart pergolesi...
Purcell !

Telemann eller Bachs kantater ligner hinanden så meget.
Not bad, but shure no Bach!
In comparison to Telemann, Bach is a bore. Bach is just too parochial. His music is too predictable.

@@christianwouters6764 It's not sacrilege at all. All the great composers have differing strengths and weaknesses .Bach is no exception .
