"Die kleine Kammermusik“ or “La Petite Musique de Chambre” is the title of six partitas written by Georg Philipp Telemann, first printed in Frankfurt in 1716. The music is described in this edition as suitable for players of different melody instruments and rewarding for the beginner as well as for the advanced virtuoso. We borrowed the name from Telemann for our programs which include serious and playful, easy and virtuoso, original and arranged music from the early renaissance to the late baroque period.
