With Simon Heighes.
2: Church Service. Georg Philipp Telemann served the five main churches in Hamburg for nearly half a century, producing a passion every year and well over a thousand cantatas. He brought to these works a new dramatic dimension based on his experience as a composer of opera. The music in this programme reflects the more serious side of his personality. There are excerpts from the joint Telemann-Bach motet
Jauchzet dem Herrn, the passion Der Tod Jesus, and the ravishingly beautiful cantata Du aber Daniel
Gehe Hin.
Repeated next Tuesday 12 midnight
