From the Musical Heritage Society vault: American oboe virtuoso Humbert Lucarelli performs the six partitas from Georg Philipp Telemann's Kleine Kammermusik and selections from Die getreue Musik-Meister with harpsichordist Gerald Ranck and bassoonist Alan Brown, newly restored in HD sound and available in digital format for the first time.
"In 1737, on Telemann’s return from an eight month stay in Paris, the “Hamburgische Berichte von gelehrten Sachen’” suggested that “Herr Telemann will greatly oblige the connoisseurs of music if, as he promises, he will describe the present condition of music in Paris as he came to know it by his own experience, and if he will in this way seek to make French music, which he has done much to bring to fashion, even more highly valued in Germany than it is.” Telemann began to carry out the plan, but it was never completed, and his notes have disappeared.
It is not known exactly how much music Telemann composed, but we arrive at some idea of the quantity by quoting his own figures: Between 1720 and 1740, Telemann estimated that he composed twelve complete cycles of sacred music for all the Sundays and feast days of the year; 19 passions, 20 operas and comic operas, 20 oratorios, 40 serenades, 600 overtures, trios, concertos, clavier works, 700 songs, etc. This does not include the music he wrote before 1720 (including the 200 overtures (suites) he com posed in 1705-1707) or the works he composed between 1740 and the time of his death in 1767. In all it has been estimated that he wrote over 2000 compositions more. There are several extant manuscripts of the Kleine Kammermusik, which was composed in 1716. The present version is based on a printed edition of 1716, although the embellishment in the oboe part was done by Mr. Lucarelli, and the realization of the figured bass was done by Mr. Ranck.
Die Kleine Kammermusik consists of six partitas (or suites) each of which is in six movements. Each partita opens with a slow movement, all except one of whích are designated simply “con affetto,” or ‘adagio’” (Partitas 1 and 3). Although a partita is made up of several dances, most of the movements of the six suites in Die Kleine Kammermusik are designated “aria.” Those who performed the music when it was first published, however, imme diately recognized the fact that the fifth aria from partita No. 2 is a bourrée, the first aria from No. 3 is a gavotte and so on. While most of the “’arias’” are dances, there are several which are not only in the nature of abstract music, they are virtually highly concentrated types of orchestral movements. Such movements as the "grave: of No. 4, the ‘andante” of No. 5 and the “aria 5” of No. 6 are more characteristic of orchestral music than of the chamber suite. In each of these movements, Telemann’s counterpoint is somewhat more involved than in most of the dances. The "grave” of No. 4 is especially interesting because the ex- pressive melody with which it opens is really the subject of a miniature two-part fugue between the melody and bass."
