Music for a Mixed Taste - Zohn, Steven (Laura H. Carnell Professor of Music History, Laura H. Carnell Professor of Music History, Temple University, Philadelphia)

This first full-length study of Telemann's concertos, sonatas, and suites focuses on his imaginative mixing of styles and genres. Special attention is also devoted to the extra musical meanings and humor of his programmatic overture-suites, his unprecedented self-publishing enterprise, and the social resonances of his Polish-style works.
