Pratum Integrum is the only original-instrument orchestra in Russia and one of the few ensembles specializing in early music. The members are nearly all very young but also very skilled. The entire package is beautifully designed and carried out, with an informative note booklet decorated with lovely medieval-looking artwork along the sides. The actual disc is imprinted with what looks like a Classical period dish design - one of the most striking optical disc printing jobs I have seen. The 5-channel recordings for this Russian label are made by Netherlands-based Polyhymnia International and are of great clarity and focus, with the surrounds giving a fine impression of the concert space - which was a studio of the Russian TV and Radio Company in Moscow large enough to hold both a symphony orchestra and an audience. Such studios are no longer overly-deadened with excessive absorbtive materials as was once the fashion in the Soviet period. (Then Melodiya would add metallic-sounding artificial reverb in mastering.)
Telemann was the leading composer of his time, getting much more attention than J.S. Bach. Yet much of his music has yet to be recorded and appreciated. The title of this disc may be a bit corny (reminding me of program themes of the late radio host Karl Haas) but it is a challenge to present several similar works by composers as prolific as Telemann; Vivaldi concertos present a similar problem. The newly-presented Orchestral Suite sports ten short movements (one only 58 seconds) in mostly dance forms. It is fresh sounding and more than that rather French-sounding - almost reminding one of Rameau’s suites. The other four works use standard tempo markings for the movements, which are four except for one concerto with five movements. The soloists on flute and oboe are exceptional. Tempi are occasionally break-neck, but without the slightest missed notes. (Made me think of the recent news item alleging that some classical soloists were taking performance-enhancing drugs to play faster; somehow seems unlikely in Russia.) Both Italian and French musical influences are heard, and most such Telemann works end with very happy-sounding and tuneful finales..

Телеманн в мажоре по уровням (дб) - аналогичен минорному. Чуть погромче. Но все равно очень тихо. Интересно все-таки, насколько характер исполняемого Пратумом вписывается в показатели громкости - сравнить с тем же их симфонически-громким Тицем. (Вероятно не уравнивают\нормализуют под "некое среднее"! А лепят так - "как есть".)

Насчет студии, которая "large enough" полностью согласен.
Естественые реверберации! (Ага, будто ЛЗ в Polar Studio :D: !)

Кстати мажор у Телеманна, как и следовало ожидать, не такой уж "мажорный"\веселый (ср. опять же с общим натроем диска Тица).
Драматизм, экспрессия, моменты полные патетичной трагики - их пожалуй на треть диска: соль-мажорный концерт для скрипки (largo особенно) и соль-минорный секстет.
На примере этих моментов думается: интересно, а как бы они сыграли что-нибудь из Вивальди? Что нибудь очень знакомое - какой-нибудь из виолончельных концертов :rolleyes: .
(А лучше Времена года :D: ).

Звук - неровный, дрожащий, трепетный - как теплый воздух, как струящийся в воздухе дымок - плывет и покачивается - порыв прохладного ветерка, чуть колышутся тяжелые шторы, дрожащие огоньки свечей, мерцающих в золоченом вертикальном мраке зальных зеркал...

Концовка секстета - феерическая - очень понравилась - своей фуга-обрАзностью (притом звучит tres vivaldesque). Закручивающиеся быстрое движение - вверх по спирали. И представляется какая-то мистическая "лестница Иакова" - прямо в клубящиеся барочные небеса!
