About
The first guide to research on Telemann in any language. The 'Telemann Renaissance' is now more than half-century old. The veritable explosion of performances, both live and recorded, of the composer's music in recent decades has won him an ever-increasing following among musicians and concert-goers worldwide. This book presents a much-needed gateway for further study. As with other books in the Composer Compendia series, the book includes a brief biography, dictionary, works-list, and selective bibliography.

Today [. . .] Zohn can rightly claim that 'as the composer's music has steadily become better known, opinions of him have risen in equal measure' (p.117). And this is thanks in no small part to Zohn himself, who has almost singlehandedly set the tone for English-language Telemann research in the twenty-first century. Building on the efforts of recent generations of early music practitioners and scholars, The Telemann Compendium makes it clear that this extraordinary composer's fame and success will have been anything but vain and fleeting. -- Paul Newton-Jackson
