Teleman is one of the best composers ever.

[@MrGer2295]

Legacy -- He was immensely popular not only in Germany but in the rest of Europe as well: orders for editions of Telemann's music came from France, Italy, Holland, Belgium, Scandinavian countries, Switzerland, and Spain. It was only in early 19th century that his popularity came to a sudden halt. Most lexicographers started dismissing him as a "polygraph" who composed too many works, a Vielschreiber for whom quantity came before quality. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

Telemann's power of invention is incredible; I love listening to his works, they please me :)

[@MrGer2295]

Legacy -- By pursuing exclusive publication rights for his own works, he set one of the most important early precedents for regarding music as the intellectual property of the composer. The same attitude informed his public concerts, where Telemann would frequently perform music originally composed for ceremonies attended only by a select few members of the upper class. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

Work -- His patrons included members of the court, the Gobelins factory, private individuals, and the church. In the ensuing centuries, Vanloo's critical fortune has plummeted, although his ability remains admirable, and the quality and variety of his work command respect. His Marriage of the Virgin is preserved in the Louvre. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

[@MrGer2295]

Legacy -- Composers he influenced musically included pupils of J.S. Bach in Leipzig, such as Wilhelm Friedmann Bach, Carl Philipp Emmanuel Bach and Johann Friedrich Agricola, as well as those composers who performed under his direction in Leipzig (Christoph Graupner, Johann David Heinichen and Johann Georg Pisendel), composers of the Berlin lieder school, and finally, his numerous pupils, none of whom, however, became major composers. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

In 1734 he settled in Paris, and in 1735 became a member of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture and rose rapidly in the hierarchy of the academy. He was decorated with the Order of Saint Michael and named First Painter to king Louis XV of France in 1762. He died in Paris on 15 July 1765. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

[@MrGer2295]

Leaving Italy in 1723, he worked in Paris, and received the first prize for historical painting in 1727 - as did his future rival François Boucher. After again visiting Turin in 1727, he was employed by king Victor Amadeus II of Sardinia, for whom he painted a series of subjects illustrative of Tasso. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

Mendelssohn became a standing ovation for bringing "Bach"'s Cantata "Machet die Tore weit" back to life. As in the 1930's it seemed to be Telemann's work, people all of a sudden classified it as "inferior" to Bach ...

[@MrGer2295]

Legacy -- . After the Bach revival, Telemann's works were judged as inferior to Bach's and lacking in religious fervour.[citation needed] Particularly striking examples of such unfair judgements were produced by noted Bach biographers Philipp Spitta and Albert Schweitzer, who criticized Telemann's cantatas and then praised works they thought were composed by Bach-but which were, in fact, composed by Telemann, as was shown by later research. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

[@MrGer2295]

Work -- By his simplicity of style and correctness of design, the result of his study of the great Italian masters, he did much to purify the modern French school; but the contemporary praise that was lavished upon his productions now appears undue and excessive. Impressionante!!! Thank you for sharing this video.

Very beautiful, but it is the cantata TWV 01.1511

[@MyBshep]

Thank you for posting! Who is the soloist?

[@SamoriahGames]

While Telemann certainly was a polymath, I believe polygraph is exactly what was meant in that context.

[@SamoriahGames]

Polygraph also refers to a person who writes many different things. I'm not sure how "polygraph" came to refer to a lie detector in the first place, because if you dissect the word, it clearly has to do with multiple (poly) and writing (graph).

[@millertj27]

I think you mean "polymath".

[@rickmarti77]

BWV 141 is one of the best works of Bach by Telemann. Does any scholar really think he can hear the difference? Bach got the Mendelssohn "bump." BWV 53 is also a fine work not by Bach.

[@millertj27]

How so? A polygraph is a lie detector.
