About this product
The Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin and soprano Christina Landshamer present a Telemann monography, consisting of his cantata Ino and instrumental works composed in the same period. Despite, or perhaps actually thanks to, Telemann's use of just one singer, Ino is highly dramatic, depicting a desperate woman trying to save herself and her son from her husband turned mad, eventually throwing herself off a cliff and then transformed into a goddess. Telemann composed it two years before his death, and the score is exceptionally rich and colourful. The cantata is combined with his Overture in D Major, Divertimento in E-flat Major and Sinfonia melodica, each underlining the exceptional liveliness of this composer well into the ninth decade of his prolific life. The Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin is generally seen as one of the best period-instruments ensembles of today, and has a substantial Pentatone discography, including CANTATA with Bejun Mehta (2018), Handel's Concerti grossi Op. 3 and 6 (released in 2019 and 2020). Telemann's Miriways (2020), Handel's Messiah (2020), Haydn's L'isola disabitata (2021) and Mozart Symphonies (2023). Christina Landshamer collaborated with the Akademie fur Alte Musik Berlin on La Passione (2022), and also featured as Marzelline on Beethoven's Fidelio (2021).

![Holst / Madchenchor Hannover - Tochter Sonne Inka-Kantate / Savitri Kammeroper - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/d6cf0a4d-bde3-4988-bcd9-739ed81602e1.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Andreas N. Tarkmann calls his latest work InchDaughter of the Sun - Inca CantataInch - a film about the old town Machu Picchu rediscovered in 1911 gave him the idea. In the Inca culture, the Inchsun virginsInch were young girls who were snatched from their families at an early age, who lived isolated in a monastery and were responsible for the development of the religious sun cult. From this historical tradition, librettist Markus Pohlmeyer developed a series of sixteen songs which, although fictitious, credibly tell the life of the daughters of the Sun from their point of view. Tarkmann developed his own musical language, which he wrote especially for the Mädchenchor Hannover. Gustav Holst's chamber opera InchSavitriInch is an excellent addition - it goes back to an episode from the old Indian epic of the same name. Under the direction of Gudrun Schröfel, the Girls' Choir is able to bring it's tonal strengths to bear in both works.

Akademie für Alte Musik Berlin returns to Pentatone together with soprano Christina Landshamer, presenting La Passione, a collection of dazzling concert arias on love, longing and loss by Mozart, Beethoven and Haydn, paired with the latter's InchLa PassioneInch Symphony. Ranging from pastoral simplicity to exuberant outrage, the program offers some of the finest vocal writing around 1800, including some of Beethoven's rare and little-known excursions to Italian bravura opera, as well as one of the most dramatic and expressive symphonies of the eighteenth-century. The Akademie für Alte Musik is generally seen as one of the best period-instruments ensembles of today, and has a substantial Pentatone discography, including CANTATA with Bejun Mehta (2018), Handel's Concerti grossi op. 6 (released in 2019 and 2020). Telemann's Miriways (2020), Handel's Messiah (2020) and Haydn's L'isola disabitata (2021). Christina Landshamer featured as Marzelline on Beethoven's Fidelio (2021).
