The first guide to research on Telemann in any language. This book
is the first guide to research on the composer Georg Philipp
Telemann (1681-1767) in any language. Although the scholarly
'Telemann Renaissance' is now a half-century old, there has never
been a book intended to serve asa gateway for further study. Apart
from a handful of biographies, dictionary entries, and annotated
bibliographies (many of which are now severely out of date),
students of Telemann's life and music have been left to dive into
the secondary literature in order to get their bearings.
Considering that this now burgeoning literature has mainly taken
the form of German dissertations and conference proceedings, it is
small wonder that the field of Telemann studies has been relatively
slow to develop in the English-speaking world. And yet 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. As with
other books in the Composer Compendia series, the book includes a
brief biography, dictionary, works-list, and selective
bibliography.
