Magnificat Performance
This is a concert production in the Magdeburg Sonntagsmusik series, a chamber-music series dedicated to Georg Philipp Telemann and his contemporaries. The series presents music associated with eighteenth-century styles, genres, and ensemble formations and normally takes place in the Schinkelsaal of the Gesellschaftshaus. The #616 programme centres on Georg Philipp Telemann's Deutsches Magnificat and supplements it with church music for the Advent and Christmas season. The listed performing forces are members of Bach Consort Leipzig, the Sächsisches Barockorchester, and Gotthold Schwarz, credited as bass and musical director. No director, stage design, costumes, lighting concept, choreography, staging concept, or production-specific visual treatment is stated. The event is presented as a seated concert in the Schinkelsaal rather than as a staged opera or theatrical production. The source material does not specify a running time, language, or surtitles.
