Telemann: Trios pour le Dessus de Viole

People also wanted to flatter me by saying that I herein had shown my best strength"" - George Philipp Telemann Along with this quote was the fact that Telemann very much liked to employ unusual instrumentations as well as any instrument that was available during his time. This release represents the first complete documentation of his Trio Sonatas with the oboe and recorder in supporting roles.
