Overture and Conclusion for 2 Flutes, Strings & Basso continuo in E minor TWV 55:e1 Tafelmusik I If Telemann was regarded by his contemporaries as one of the greatest of all composers, his star, faced with the overwhelming presence of Bach and Handel, paled in the course of the 19th century to the verge of contempt.

Par STRAVINSKY IGOR. Composed in 1902 it is a miracle that Stravinsky's Scherzo in G minor survives at all. Most of the pieces from his extreme youth were lost with the fall of the Russian Empire. But the Scherzo was found among the scores presented by the estate of Nicolai Ivanovich Richter, a pianist and friend of Stravinsky's youth, to the Soviet government, and it was published in facsimile in…

Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. The St. John Passion, Bach’s first passion oratorio, can hardly be understood as “one” work.

This edition presents the St. John Passion in its second version of 17…
