Die Landlust: Kleine Kantate von Wald und Au (Score & Parts)
Telemann, Georg Philipp
Telemann Die Landlust: Kleine Kantate von Wald und Au (Singing Score & 1 each of Flute, Cello parts)
If Telemann was regarded by his contemporaries as one of the greatest of all composers, his star, faced with the overwhelming presence of Bach and Handel, paled in the course of the 19th century to the verge of contempt. This assessment changed radically during the course of the last century. Through the systematic exploration of his music, Telemann, once considered purely an instrumental composer, has emerged into a highly cultivated, culturally well-connected and enormously versatile artistic personality who left an indelible mark on the musical life of his time. Again and again we discover an individual approach in his works that seems to abandon the musical conventions of his day, both large and small.
This solo cantata appeared in Telemann's collection "Moralische Kantataen, III Teil" as a lively and easy to perform work for the music lover. The edition is strictly based on this source text, the bass was incorporated according to Telemann's instructions in his "Sing-, Spiel- und Generalbassübungen".
