It was a genre that must have been close to his heart. “Specifically, people tried to persuade me that trios were my strongest point’’, he wrote in his autobiography as early as 1718 and he repeated remarks to that effect in 1740. Would he have recorded this laudatory characterization if he hadn’t secretly agreed? He had two of the trios published, both in A minor. The first sonata (TWV 42:a1) was in a volume of six trio sonatas for various instruments, published by the composer himself in 1718, by which time his talents had taken him as far as Frankfurt. The second sonata (TWV 42:a4) appeared in his collection Essercizii Musici. The other three trios have only survived in manuscript: two in the Darmstadt Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek (TWV 42:f2, TWV 42:F8), the third in the library of the Royal Conservatory in Brussels. The authenticity of this last piece has recently been questioned. There are frequent parallel octaves in the violin and the bass, wholly against the rules of counterpoint. Telemann would never have done that. The assumption is that the bass was added later by somebody else. When the musicologist Klaus Hofmann wrote an article on the matter in the German music periodical Tibia (1/2009), he also questioned Telemann’s authorship of the upper parts – not convincingly, but that is by the way. In the next issue, Hofmann was able to announce the existence in the Landesbibliothek Mecklenburg-Vorpommern in Schwerin of a trio sonata for recorder and viola da gamba in G minor by one Pierre Prowo (1697– 1757), of which the opening measures of the fast second movement are amazingly similar to the opening measures of the Brussels trio sonata. Was Prowo, an organist from Altona near Hamburg, perhaps the composer of that piece as well? A year later, Hofmann discovered that the same library also contains a manuscript of Trio Sonata TWV 42:d10 …with Prowo’s name on the title page! Erik Bosgraaf is one of the foremost and most adventurous recorder players of today. His modest instrument the recorder is for him an inexhaustible source of inspiration and boundless possibilities. He improvises, plays jazz, uses electronics and likes to work with artists outside the box. For him there is no difference between early and contemporary music: “Early music is always new”. The sense of discovery permeates all his recordings of works by Telemann, of which he already released 4 albums for Brilliant Classics. Tracklist: Trio Sonata in A Minor, TWV 42:4 00:00 I.
