Wenn Der Wind

These are outstanding examples of Telemann's German style of composition, seen mostly in his chamber cantatas, which are on a par with Bach's. The orchestra of the Michaelstein Monastery Institute for Performance Practice has always specialized in the works of Telemann, and their familiarity with that repertoire serves them well; they play the stuff with confidence and grace. The four vocalists likewise are Bach-era specialists, and prove it with vigor. My only small criticism, and it's aesthetic rather than technical, is that I don't especially enjoy the sound of alto Henning Voss's voice per se. On the slower chorale-like movements, he sounds hollow to me. On the more exhuberant embellished passages, however, his superb athleticism justifies his role in the performance.
