Australian early music group the Elysium Ensemble continue their series of recordings of duos on period instruments focussing on the art of elegant conversation in the Baroque with this album of canons and fantasias by Georg Philipp Telemann.

Based around the Melodious Canons composed in 1738 in Paris, Elysium principals Greg Dikmans (flute) and Lucinda Moon (violin) also introduce a selection of Telemann’s solo fantasias for their respective instruments.

'[...] elegant, measured readings'

- Early Music Review

'[...] both artists deliver fine performances of this music which is indeed "agreeable to the ear". This is music which is fit for repeated listening, also thanks to the artists and their refined playing, in the manner of an elegant conversation.'
MusicWeb International

'[...] elegant, measured readings'
Early Music Review

'Their attractive playing is entirely appropriate to the elements of sensitivity that the Galant style demands.'
andrewbensonwilson.org

'It is as if the musicians are playing just for us – which is probably what Telemann intended. It is entirely convincing.'
Lark Reviews
