Gallo Chamber Players: Fantastic Voyages
Georg Philipp Telemann (1681-1767) was one of the most prolific composers to ever live. He wrote for just about every conceivable combination of instruments, and borrowed from every style of music he came across in his travels throughout Europe. All of this means that this programme, comprised exclusively of his music, is surprisingly diverse. Highlights include the “Gulliver’s Travels” suite for two violins, and a small-scale version of the Orchestral Suite in g minor.
