In a pre-concert talk, Jonathan Price discusses Manchester Camerata's evening performance of Bach, Rameau and Telemann.
Manchester Camerata Conductor - Nicholas Kraemer
Back in 1721 when the Brandenburg Concertos were first printed they were completely groundbreaking; their virtuosic nature and inventive use of styles and instrumentation representing the peak of early 18th century musical achievement. This concert features the first three concertos with a range of instruments including oboes, bassoon, horns, trumpet and of course strings. compared to Bach, Rameau and particularly Telemann were equally, if not more, revered in their day, so tonight's concert is a chance to contrast their music with the acknowledged mastery of Bach.
