Description: | As a Hamburg-based musician Matthias Höfs has a special relationship with Georg Philipp Telemann, who was a very successful composer of operas at the cityâ??s opera house on the Gänsemarkt. As director of music for the five parish churches of Hamburg, Telemann made a decisive contribution to the sacred music performed at those institutions. And it has not taken the 250th anniversary of his death, on June 25, 2017, for Telemann to be acknowledged as one of the most efficacious Baroque composers alongside J.S. Bach and G.F. Handel. Matthias Höfs played solo trumpet in opera for 16 years with the Philharmonic State Orchestra of Hamburg and now gives concerts all over the world, enjoying an acclaimed reputation. On his new CD the star trumpeter presents works by Telemann together with the estimable Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen. Matthias Höfs is well aware of Telemannâ??s versatility. The fact that this Jack-of-all-trades made a significant contribution to the trumpet literature and composed three trumpet concertos is not widely known. â??We are all familiar with the brilliant trumpet parts in the works of Bach, Handel and Vivaldi,
such as the Christmas Oratorio, the B minor Mass and Messiah. Telemann occupies a special place in the ranks of the Baroque composers when it comes to us trumpet players, because neither Bach nor Handel dedicated a single solo concerto to the instrument. Telemann composed no fewer than three fantastic trumpet concertos and a sonata, which are for me among the loveliest of their genre,â? the musician says. As well as performing Telemannâ??s original trumpet concertos, Matthias Höfs presents delicate chamber music works for a small ensemble on his new album; all works which cannot be played in this way on a historic Baroque trumpet. In this way, he illustrates the instrumentâ??s development over the past 300 years. Colourful music-making is equally possible on modern trumpets, while todayâ??s musicians benefit from the technical refinements of present-day instruments. In the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie of Bremen the trumpeter has found his ideal musical partners for this project.
The ensemble has enthused international audiences with energetic music-making and its extraordinary sound. â??It was a sheer delight for me to re-discover Telemannâ??s music with the musicians of the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie,â? admits Matthias Höfs. - DEUTSCHE KAMMERPHILHARMONIE BREMEN/MATTHIAS HOFS |
