Georg Philipp Telemann
Twelve Fantasias for Flute Solo TWV 40:2-13
Aside from the Partita in a minor by Johann Sebastian Bach (HN 457) and the Sonata in a minor by his son Carl Philipp Emanuel (HN 555), it was also mainly Telemann’s 12 Fantasias that enriched the solo flute repertoire in the first half of the 18th century.
Telemann’s cycle evidently had a great influence on the flautist’s world. The composer had his Fantasias published in 1727 (he might even have engraved the edition himself). The work was soon considered to be exemplary and caught on. Our edition is based on Telemann’s print, which we have also reproduced as a facsimile in the edition. The flute expert Rachel Brown has provided a commentary with details regarding performance practice.
About the Composer
Georg Philipp Telemann
One of the leading German composers of his day, particularly as regards his German-language operas as well. Also from his pen came an extremely large number of liturgical works (especially cantatas), which came about within the context of his appointments and the compositional duties associated with them.
