Five selections from Georg Philipp Telemann’s “Quadri” or Paris Quartets bring the art of musical conversation into focus. Italian vivacity and virtuosity meet the refinement of French dance and the contrapuntal ingenuity of German style. Chouchane Siranossian (violin), Karel Valter (traverso), Jonathan Pesek (viola da gamba), Hadrien Jourdan and Marc Alomar (continuo) shape a lively dialogue across sonatas, concertos and a suite. The programme features Concerto 1 in G major, Sonata seconda in G minor, the Second Suite in B minor, Sonata prima in A major and Concerto secondo in D major.
