What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani most often cites Telemann as part of the Baroque repertoire, alongside other composers of the period12. He places him among the Baroque composers with a regular rhythm3 and uses him as an example of a Baroque music shared by several countries, sometimes hard to tell apart from that of his contemporaries45. He makes the same remark about him as about Vivaldi. He nonetheless grants his music an undeniable richness, which he sets against the neo-Baroque fashion and the discourse of the "baroqueux", the period-performance movement: admiring the work does not mean endorsing that movement67. He also finds his writing denser than Mozart's. In his reflections on "sound ghettos", he contrasts the trumpet of his Trumpet Concerto with the trumpet of popular variety music8. Finally, he counts him among the rediscovered Baroque composers.

Portrait: TelemannWho is this?

Georg Philipp Telemann (German:; 24 March 1681 [O.S. 14 March 1680] – 25 June 1767) was a German Baroque composer and multi-instrumentalist. He is one of the most prolific composers in history, at least in terms of surviving works. Telemann was considered by his contemporaries to be one of the leading German composers of the time, and he was compared favourably both to his friend Johann Sebastian Bach, who made Telemann the godfather and namesake of his son Carl Philipp Emanuel, and to George Frideric Handel, whom Telemann also knew personally.
