| |  | Telemann - Suites & Concertos for recorder & orchestra
“..this disc will have you cheering. Maurice Steger plays the meanest recorder you will find anywhere, and while music for this instrument isn't usually regarded as the acme of excitement for thrillseekers, Steger and the Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin deliver blockbuster performances of all three works... Harmonia Mundi's impeccable engineering provides the finishing touch on a disc that must count as one of the most amazing and enjoyable baroque recitals of this or any other year” Classics Today 10/10 “Steger's playing is astonishing, and the generally swift tempos adopted seem merely a spur to inventive phrasing and articulation. Steger is capable of not only lightning passagework but also playing of the utmost delicacy. The ensemble is most definitely on top form, the recording is perfect” International Record Review | | | In stock - usually despatched within 1 working day. |

Carin van Heerden (recorder, oboe & direction) L'Orfeo Barockorchester The orchestral suites on this enchanting new disc of Telemann are beautiful works, considered by some as the most difficult pieces Telemann wrote for recorder and oboe. The music fascinates from the first to the last note with its originality and this is due to its Polish inflection. Telemann once wrote "a Polish tune makes the whole world jig."

Various CD's with this orchestra have been released on CPO and have brought international acclaim | | | (also available to download from $10.50) | Usually despatched in 2 - 3 working days.

| |  | Naturally Telemann
Naturally Telemann offers some of the composer’s most elegant, ingenious and spirited instrumental music. Two concertos feature the recorder and the transverse flute in novel instrumentations that yield unique combinations of tone. These works are paired with the cantata Seele, lerne dich erkennen for soprano and recorder ensemble, and the Sonata in B flat major for recorders and continuo. Naturally Telemann shows off the composer’s great stylistic range as he adapted his idiom to the times, indeed helped shape the music of a new era. | |
