Frankfurter Telemann-Studien

The Frankfurter Telemann-Studien are planned as a series of publications that are conceived of either as aids to researach on Telemann's church cantatas — catalogues, collections of archival material, etc. — or as the result of such researach. The first volume, for example, represents an attempt at collecting bibliographic information about these cantatas, hitherto scattered through a number of published and unpublished sources, in one reference work — hence the name "Konkordanz" (concordance). Other volumes will be devoted to historical attempts at cataloging Telemann's impressive cantata output (vols. 2 and 3) and to studies of various aspects of these works.

The series is conceived of as an open forum for research on Telemann's church cantatas. All scholars working in this fascinating but still largely uncharted landscape are encouraged to submit proposals for contributions.
