Awards and reviews
Early Music Today September 2017
The eponymous tenor aria, through which Telemann weaves a chorale tune played by coronet and trombones, is particularly striking, and beautifully sung by Hans Jorg Mammel. Vocal and instrumental performances are commendable throughout
Classical Music July 2017
it is testament to Telemann’s prolific invention that every bar teems with vitality and joy…if solo singing is not entirely consistent, instrumental and choral contributions are second to none.
