This is the first CD in the first complete recording of the seventy-two cantatas from Georg Philipp Telemannâ€™s collection Harmonischer Gottes-Dienst, i.e., the Musical Divine Service, published in Hamburg in 1726â€”the first complete set of cantatas for the liturgical year to be published. The cantatas are designated for voice, an obbligato instrument (recorder, violin, transverse flute or oboe), and basso continuo, and take the form of two da capo arias with an intervening recitative. Although intended for worship, both public and private, Telemannâ€™s cantatas are a masterly blend of tunefulness with skilled counterpoint and vocal & instrumental virtuosity. The six cantatas in this volume are numbers 4, 8, 13, 17, 24 and 68. Founded in Norway in 1994, Bergen Barokk is a four-piece early music ensemble specializing in Baroque sonatas and cantatas. The ensemble has toured Norway, the UK, the Netherlands, and Germany, and has made several previous CD recordings. Informative commentary on the music in English, German, and French.
