Music To Die For.......2006-03-25
Mr. Sillem died at the end of 1732, prompting Telemann to write his memorable funeral music - "Schwanengesang 1733" (Swansong). Interestingly the text he set was penned my none other than Mr. Sillem himself; thus the title. Telemann's tribute to the late mayor was very much admired at the time, and was repeated later on in public concerts. During his long life Telemann managed to outlive a further eight Hamburg mayors, composing similar works for them all.
Througout the work in question Telemann employs the unusual effect of muted trumpets, giving a unique quality. A stately and moving Sinfonia sets the scene wonderfully, and the following chorales, recits and arias hold the attention with their variety and quality. The impressive bass (Gotthold Schwarz) gets the lion's share of solos, but all the soloists have their moments of glory and are first rate. They are each matched up with one other singer for the choruses which creates a pure and clear sound.
The canata on the same disc is equally rewarding. Top marks too to Michael Schneider and his Frankfurt orchestra.
