Telemann, Georg Philipp
Telemann Der jüngste Tag wird bald sein Ziel erreichen (The Last of Days Shall Reach its Destination) (TVWV 1:301) (Full Score)
Georg Philipp Telemann wrote his Advent cantata, "Der jüngste Tag wird bald sein Ziel erreichen” for the 1717–18 liturgical year. He had already set the same words, by Erdmann Neumeister, in 1710–11. This time, however, he dispensed with an instrumental introduction (“Sonata”) and instead began with an accompanied recitative (“Canto solo”).
Compared to this expressive opening, the recitatives and chorales are kept deliberately simple, placing them within easy reach of relatively small church choirs. It is also possible to have the choral sections sung one to a part.
- Manageable by small choruses
- Straight-forward piano reduction in the vocal score
- Singing translation in English
- Urtext of the Telemann Edition
- Full score and performance material (BA7671) and vocal score (BA7671-90) available for sale.
