Sheet music facsimile Telemann Georg Philipp New quartets in the form of six suites for flute, violin, viol, cello

This facsimile sheet music by Georg Philipp Telemann is part of our Dominantes collection.

New quartets in the form of six suites, 1738.

Composed by Telemann for Paris and published during his stay there, this work is written for a typically French ensemble: flute, violin, bass viol, cello and continuo bass. In spite of the use of French terminology, these quartets are decidedly European in style, revealing both French, Italian and German influences.
