Tempesta plays 2 Bachs & Telemann

orchestral music by the father, the son, and the godfather

Johann Sebastian Bach, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach and Georg Philipp Telemann—father, son and godfather—shared in lifelong personal and musical exchanges. The program showcases the musical relationships that reflect the father’s high baroque—albeit iconoclastic—traditionalism, the son’s embrace of modernity and the nascent classical style, and the godfather who kept pace with it all. Works include J.S. Bach’s Triple Concerto in A minor, CPE Bach’s Symphony in C, Telemann’s high baroque Flute Concerto in G, and his classical Divertimento for Strings in B‑flat.
