Telemann: Les Plaisirs,
By Bjorn Viberg (European Union) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Telemann: Les Plaisirs (Audio CD)
Telemann: Les Plaisirs is a harmonia mundi recording from 1997 featuring the orchestra of the age of enlightenment under the direction of monnica hugget. We also get the pleasure of listening to Sarah Cunningham on the viola da gamba and marion verbruggen on the recorder. Carsten Lange has written the music notes. Also included are short biographies of the performers. Highly recommended. 5/5.

Every track is beautiful,

This review is from: Telemann: Les Plaisirs (Audio CD)
I can't get over how beautiful this CD is, and I'm not using the word "beautiful" loosely. I love every track. My daughter-in-law was at my house recently for a day of bed rest. I left her with a stack of CDs, including this one. When I got home from work she said, without any prompting from me, "This CD is beautiful," and she said "beautiful" with feeling. I bought four more copies for Christmas presents.
It's hard to put in words why I find it so beautiful. The music is fresh, bright, delightful. It's not just beautiful, it's movingly beautiful. I like baroque music, but this sounds somewhat different from most of my baroque CDs, perhaps partly because one of the instruments is a viola da gamba. This is a review of "Telemann: Les Plaisirs", with Marion Verbruggen, Sara Cunningham, and Monica Hugget. I have several CDs with pieces by Telemann, but this is the first one I've bought that is all Telemann. (I once had a set of phonograph records with only Telemann, but that was long, long ago.) I have several CDs with Marion Verbruggen, whom I have recently discoverd and whom I like very much. I also have several CDs with Hugget and Cunningham, and I like them too. I bought this CD mostly because I read somewhere that Verbruggen plays the recorder beautifully in track 13. I didn't know what to expect of the rest.
