Telemann’s musical legacy is extremely extensive and
comprises all the customary musical genres of his
time. Typical of Telemann are cantabile melodies,
inventively applied timbres and, especially in his late
works, unusual harmonic effects as well. The instrumental
works frequently reveal the strong influence of
French and Italian music, and occasionally folkloristic
Polish influences as well. Stefan Schilli, solo oboist of
the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, has strongly
committed himself to this repertoire on BR Klassik;
this forms the basis for the creation of the present CD
with Schilli’s “Accademia giocosa” as a co-production
with that broadcasting station.
