Telemann Paris Quartets

Vivid, refined and endlessly inventive, Telemann’s Paris Quartets stand among the great masterpieces of Baroque chamber music. Composed during his visit to the French capital in the 1730s, these works reveal Telemann at his most cosmopolitan—blending the elegance of the French style, the brilliance of the Italian, and the expressive warmth of the German tradition. Each quartet offers a rich tapestry of colour and conversation between flute, violin, cello, and harpsichord, showcasing the art of musical dialogue at its most sophisticated.

In this intimate concert,the Coomoora Ensemble brings these radiant works to life with vitality and poise, illuminating Telemann’s wit, charm, and mastery of texture. Join us for an evening of elegance and imagination—where four voices intertwine to create music of extraordinary grace and joy.
