Description
Andante Vivace Adagio Allegro Andante Allegro Molto Largo Allegro Siciliano Allegro Largo Vivace Allegro Largo Allegro Allegro Andante Allegro Largo Vivace Andante Allegro In preparation of the Telemann year 2017: a new recording of the solo oboe concertos! Georg Philipp Telemann was one of the most prolific composers in music history, his many works however all share a freshness, originality and brilliance which shows the true genius of this too long neglected Baroque composer, contemporary of Bach and Handel. The six concertos recorded on this disc are for solo oboe or oboe'd'amore. Most of them were written in Telemann's Hamburg period. They are clearly modelled on the concertos by Vivaldi and Albinoni, italianate melodies of great melodic charm and beauty, alternate with brilliant figurations and instrumental virtuosity. Excellent performances by Andrius Puskunigis and his Lithuanian ensemble St Christopher Chamber orchestra conducted by Donatas Katkus, following the principals of Historically Informed Performance Practice while playing modern instruments. Puskunigis' earlier recording of Bach Oboe Concertos (BC 94991) received excellent reviews, praising his vitality, flexibility and "Spielfreude". Andrius Puskunigis oboe & oboe d'amore St. Christopher Chamber Orchestra Donatas Katkus conductor This is the third album of the Latvian oboist Andrius Puskunigis to appear on Brilliant Classics, after highly successful releases of Bach (BC94991) and Classical (BC95218) oboe concertos, which won won international praise for their technical transparency and stylish exuberance. Recording: 8-13 September 2015, Church of St Catherine, Vilnius, Lithuania
