This is a very good pair of CDs, probably very faithful to the intent of the composer, and extremely well played except... The quartet goes into a bit of a funk during Quartet Four and most of Five. For example, Movement 1 of quartet 5 is titled "Vivement": "Lively". It is played, however, barely faster than the "Modere" movements, and without any more life.
By the time they get to the second "Modere" movement of Quartet 5, and especially the "Pas Vite" (movement 5) though, they're back ... Read More

Having heard so many mediocre performances of Telemann, I'd come to think of him as the most over-rated rediscovered genius of early music. In fact, I've been shunning concerts and new CDs of his work for years, and I've laughed smugly at the standard musicologist's tale of how Telemann was chosen for a prestigious musical position over Bach. Listening this recording of Ensemble Sonnerie, I find that the laugh is on me. Oh, not entirely; the six "Paris" quartets for flute, strings and harpsichord are ... Read More

Telemann was a whole musican, to compose multi kinds of musics, ex sacred, operas, and instrumental musics. I heared some and find instrumental music are excellent better. Ex this disc six paris quartets,we could find the mature composition of flute in it. Besides, relaxed and happiess music often are found in it. It let me understand why Telemann was a great musician, so I recommand it.
