Vesperpsalm. Par HASSE JOHANN ADOLF. The Laudate pueri was composed between 1735 and 1749 for the Ospedale degl’Incurabili in Venice. Since the Ospedale was an institution for the musical training of gifted girls and young women, the vocal parts are scored for female voices.

Über Die Nicht- Und Flüchtigkeit Des Menschlichen Lebens. Kantate Zum 24. Sonntag Nach Trinitatis. Par TELEMANN GEORG PHILIPP. The 'Trauer-Actus' is probably the earliest work in the Grimma collection of Telemann cantatas.

'The Seasons' continues to impress and remains part …
