TELEMANNS ADVENT AND CHRISTMAS CANTATAS FROM HARMONISCHER GOTTES-DIENST, 1725-6 AND 1731-2
Abstract
The following article is a structural analysis of Telemanns Advent and Christmas Cantatas from the Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst, 1725-6 and 1731-2 liturgical years. The solo sacred cantatas are investigated in their context of Lutheran Liturgy, evaluating Telemanns cantata form, the vocal Fach, the instrumentation and the text, thus offering a guide to singers performance. The outcome is a better understanding of Telemanns choice for vocal expression. These collections stand as great recipes for acquiring mental, emotional and vocal balance. This paper represents an analytical conclusion of a two-year work of transcriptions for organ and solo voice of Telemanns Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst - first published editions in Hamburg, arranged to become available in two collections, for pedagogical and extensive use as Telemann so much desired. Moreover, this study joins the global revival of Telemanns oeuvre in 2017, as 250 years were celebrated since the composers death.
